Definately not a DIY job. If you're off by even a little on one hole you could throw the wheel out of balance and do some damage. Breaking lugs/studs/bolts is not good.
Ever race your own wheel down the street? It's kinda funny until you nose dive and jack knife.

What do you mean you cant return them?
Its there fault! Correct?
It doesnt work like that, if they send you the wrong one, then by all means they are the ones that needs to correct it.

This is what I would do,
Call and ask for the owner or manager
Tell him what happened including being told they wouldnt accept return
Tell them that if they don't make THEIR mistake right, you will go to BBB, and post about them in every forum in the Internet.
Hell I'll call them and advise them I heard about them from you and will never buy from them because of this crap.
Who are they, it should be known what they do to their customers

I have this funny feeling there is more to the story than the company sending out the wrong wheels,and then not taking them in return.I don't think any company would treat a paying customer like that especially if it was beyong the 30 days.Also if you are spending $1000 on wheels with a company I would think they would take pretty good care of you.Come clean there is more to this story.
Oh yeah don't drill the wheels yourself.That sounds like a really bad idea.

Where are you in Ohio? I've got 3 days left of my vacation and I could go for a good barby... 
LokiRX7.1 and I drove about two hours to hang with Aussie and talk for like six hours. You're definately coming round with all of us.
