Offsets and sizes look good, but 5x112? Ours are 5x114.3, and I have never heard of 5x112, so it might just be a typo, if its not then they won't fit.

5 x 112 is an Audi fitment (and some Mercedes use it too, I think.)

Good luck trying to get adapters for $100 bux. Even if you do, the adapters will be thick which will push out the wheels. At this point, the wheels wont fit because of the low offset.

Redrilling the wheels could be an option but you'd have to take them to a wheel repair shop so they have look at them. Maybe this option will run you closer to your $100 dollar mark.

I'd suggest you keep looking and get a wheel that will fit your car better. The 3rd try is the charm right? Hopefuly we can give you good news on your wheel fitment in your next wheel thread. Good luck!
