Question about a set of wheels coming, Fitment issues

Hey guys so i recently paid for a set of wheels that i was going to originally put on my IS350, but since im parting out it and getting a 335i im not sure if ill be able to put these on. I know the bolt pattern for them is 5x114.3 and for BMWs its 5x120. I talked to the shop who ordered my wheels and they told me after i received them i could have them redrilled to fit 5x120. He said i could probably do it for around 125$ for all four wheels. Has anyone heard of doing this? Are their any cons in doing this? These are brand new wheels i would hate to mess them up.

Here are the specs by the way, i have no idea if they would even fit.

Work Vsxx Brombacher Edition ( Step Lips )
Matte Gunmetal
19x9.5 +27 72mm lip (Nearly 3 Inch Lip)
19x11 + 21 98 mm Lip ( About a 4 Inch Lip)

Thanks

I dont know if you got a coupe or a sedan, but if you got a coupe, i think you are going to experience rubbing issues with those specs if you drop it....

E90 or e92?
That will be an VERY aggresive fitment, but very cool wheels.

If its for a 335i, this is an extremely aggressive fitment front and rear. This will require stretched tires, fender rolling, and pulling for them to work.

Re-drilling can be done and it should not be an issue if done properly with inserts.

Wow those specs are sexy for the rear

The front will fit with a 235 or 225/35/19 tire im running a 19x9.5 et20 up front on a 235.

the rear will need the fenders Shaved, not rolled with at least -2.7° of camber to make that fit in an e90, if its an e92 then a fender flare would be needed. It will be one hell of an amazing fit though - dont give up!

Hmm thanks for the help guys, so what do you guys think? Give up on these wheels or make them fit??? Does Redrilling them in anyway hurt the wheels? What are the cons in doing so? Im paying a good amount of money for the wheels would hate to mess these up!
