BMW Rims on IS350
I know that theres a difference in the requirements to fit BMW rims on an IS350 but I am absolutely in love with the VMR VB3 glossy black wheel and want to put them on my MRM IS350. If anyone has any info on what I could do to get these rims to fit/work that would be great. Thanks in advance!!!

Yea I saw forgestar makes a similar wheel but set of BMW VMR VB3 cost about $800 for set of 4 where forgestar is a couple thousand.

I would recommend getting them RE-drilled as stated above.
You can always buy adapters - I think there is someone selling them in the classifieds. I don't recommend it but I am giving you all options available.

What are the pros and cons of either redrilling or using adaptors.

I'm not the wheel expert so maybe one can chime in later but the process is not highly recommended because it questions the integrity of the wheel and changes the look dramatically (unless they drill/fill it). Wheels adapters make a wheel fit and are like running spacers this way you wont mess up the way the wheels looks from outside (spacers are a hit and miss here). I'm sure both are safe options but in my opinion I say get the F14's. GiantsFan is they guy you should look at. He has (had?) them and they look dope. Plus, you dont have to worry about running into him because hes here on the West Coast.

I do not recommend redrilling. It's not an easy process and will probably cost quite a bit. Sometimes it won't look right either depending on the wheels. Just buy another set that looks like that in the correct bolt pattern

Just a few similar wheels that don't need re-drilling :

Rather than re-drill, you should see if VMR will sell you a set of wheels (5 ideally, in case you bend one) that haven't been drilled at all yet, then you can get them drilled to the correct bolt pattern from the beginning.
