i like it slam it and make em fit and it will look sik but thats if u can make em fit
you can force it to fit inside the wheel well, but miss my point when i say they don't really fit "performance" wise.

unless your only wish for this car is to show off

what some companys do is for example fill the 4x100 pattern and redrill a 4x 111 (or whatever) pattern, but not on the same place of the original wholes!
They redrill between the original holes (that are filled)
Some aftermarket wheels for less high end cars come with 8 holes that combine 2 patterns in one wheel so they fit multiple cars, mostly the lugholes are covered with a central big plate so you don't see the extra holes...
talk to the vw folks, they been drilling porsche wheel for their vdub since...well, forever.

stretched tires look bad and the wheels stick out too far.

The rims make your look fat in the rear.

it's a nice wheel, but bad offset... also, i think the rear wheel is not wide enough.

I don't care if I get flamed for saying this, but I think it looks good. Even though they stick out and the tires are stretched to holy-hell, I think it looks mean as hell.

On the other hand, I'd be scared as fukk driving around on redrilled wheels. That's just insane! I don't care if old-school VW owners have been doing it, it still sounds freakin dangerous.

I give you definite props for trying something different, but seriously consider different wheels. Not for the look, but for your safety. JMHO
