Default 2001 BMW 740i Wheels

Okay for the tie being I am "ballin on a budget" i have a2001 740i Sport and I just changed wheels and I am wanting to use the stock wheels on my 65 Skylark, I know you can either have them re-drilled or get adapters for them. I want to use the adapter my only problem I do not know which size or thickness. Has any one done this swap before if so can you give me specifics on your adapter size and thickness as well as the bolt pattern ( I know what the GM bolt pattern is I am just confused on the adapter to adapt the bmw wheel.

GM and BMW bolt circle is almost the same; a lot of ppl here in europe use them without spacers or adapters. Have you tried them on?

My dad had BMW wheels on his S10, and he didn't use adapters or anything.
