You need to find out offsets

I can tell you they will not fit with that bolt pattern the BMW has a 5X120 (you will need adapters that will in part effect the offset more) You have a couple choices:

1. Get a 5X114.3 to 5X120 adapter
2. Get those filled and re-drilled to 5X120

Would not recommend #2. If you are a risk taker, try some wobble bolts.

How much do the adapters run because they also work as spacers

I'm pretty sure adapters are around an inch thick. I really doubt that will work unless you have a high offset to begin with.

Redrill will be the simplest solution, it will cost roughly 40 per wheel.

pros= less costly without adding rotational weight
cons= theres no going back to 114.3 in the event you want to sell it. (only to 5x120)
