Hey I gota 2007 3 sedan. I had a 2001 Grand am, the bolt battern on it was 5x115. I read the bolt pattern on my 3 was 5x114.3. Do you think it would be possible to drill them out? I can't remember what the offset was on it though, would it make a big difference? Thanks... I'm thinking the tire size would probably be to big on these also, the rims are 18"s

Drilling alloy, not sure ? Custom jobs are very cool imo, but I am no wheel expert so can't really help you here.
I wouldn't know what to expect, besides probably some advanced skilled work and possibility of ruining the rims :?
On the other hand, 18's would require extra work already, so you could look at it as a test of will power or just settle for a new rim set measured to standard.

I don't think it would be a good idea.
You would be elongating the holes, which even so slightly, may cause balancing issues or even worse a loose wheel condition. A ghetto mod not worth the risk I think.
