How to modify BMW rim to fit thirdgen ?? pls help

I got a problem to find firebird rim in Taiwan, the specification is too special (5*120.65mm, offset about 7), so I wonder maybe to modify BMW rim to fit my firebird V6, BMW 5/7 series PCD is 5*120mm, many kind of offset 43, 38, 34... and also "15", I know the europe people have same problem too on the rim upgrade, is there any body who have done that before please tell the procedure step by step, or I may mess up the rim and waste money.....Thanks alot!

Joe

In order to get my BMW rims to fit my car I had to have adapters made. Check out www.skulte.com and ask him if he can make adapters for you. I wouldn't recommend the place that did mine as they were beyond pain in the @ss to work with.
