He will definitely give you his advice and won't tell you something looks good just to get the sale.

John is the most helpful business owner I’ve ever come across. Ordered 2 sets from him and don’t plan on stopping. My current set is a 20” square setup “Millie” in satin brushed celestial gold.

Beautiful color combo. And yes when the day comes to buy another set he will definitely be at the top of my list. 👍

Excellent quality. Perfect fitment. John, the owner is great to work with.
Wow, this looks great! I'm going to have to reach out to John about these. I like this variation without the groove on the face.

Thank you! And I agree, a more subtle, smooth look. Could almost pass for factory even. Didn't want a wheel that was too busy for the car

I’m about to order a set of Millie’s for my G80. John has been great at answering my questions quickly and has been an overall pleasure to deal with so far.


Going with the exact same setup as Frankie (above) and am excited from looking at these photos!

Another thing I wanted to mention about the Chiaras I ordered :

In addition to deleting the groove on the face, I also deleted the 3rd drilled out hole on each of the spokes (the weight savings holes).

The wheels still look good with all 3 holes, but imo look cleaner with just the 2.

Do you happen to have the weights of the wheels? Also, on their site it's an additional fee to drill for the stock centercap, did you have to do that or is the BMW center cap the same size as the BSPK cap?

If I remember correctly, the 20x9 wheel is right at 20 lb, and the 20x10 wheel is just under 22 lb I believe. Might even be lighter, I would have to go back through the emails and look it up lol.

And for the center caps, there's an option to pay a little extra to get them drilled to accept OEM. So I have BMW OEM center caps. I also paid a bit extra to include the knurled beading. And that of course, gets a better seal from the tire to the rim.

This is my mistake. Was looking at wheels for our other car and brain farted.
Color is Brushed Aluminum.
Sorry.
