It better be one kick *** set of wheels for what you plan to do....
Why are you doing this?
Are they not available in your bolt pattern?
Are they really expensive wheels that you can get cheap?
What is the reason you want to do this?

Bad
It will void your warranty (on the wheels) dont mess with structural integrity of a wheel.
Slight drilling is some times not a big deal, what bolt pattern is the original wheel? drilling more than 1 or 2mm is VERY risky, take it from me i should know

Bad idea. REALLY bad, especially (fill and Drill).
Adapters are a possibility, but they will probably screw up the offset beyond what is reasonable/safe. They are about 25 mm thick in order to change bolt pattern. Unless the wheels you are choosing have 55 mm or more offset, which few do, you are out of luck.
IMO, it doesn't matter how cool the wheels are, an unsafe mounting or modification is a no-no.
My $.02
