BMW M3 Rims on FC?

Alright so this guy is offering to sell me the OEM rims from his BMW M3 for really cheap. They are 19's and 215 and 5lug. Wondering if these would be too big for my FC not dropped or anything, I just need some rims to get me around since I did a 5 lug conversion.

Bolt patterns on BMW are NOT 5x114. So it will not work.

damn that sucks, I was getting them for real cheap liek 200bucks with tires. Ohh well any suggestions on some cost effective 5 lug rims, maybe from another car. I can't seem to locate a set from an FC locally.

lets not do hondatech talk guys.. (gsr blades on civic HB's) lol, i'm sure if you save up a bit more you can get yourself a nice looking pair of rotas or sportmaxx's. they're not the best name brand out there, but its the best gaudily way to ride. just my 2 cents. =)
