4x100 => 5x120 adapters can't be made (bolts are partly over each other).

You can make E30 5x120, but it requires M3 parts or E36 front struts with E36 M3 stuff + Z3 / E36 compact rear trailing arms with all parts.
So it's not easy nor cheap, easier to find correct rims..

+1.
Just buy wheels with the correct offset and PCD.
Hell of a lot cheaper.

Adapters can be made. but alter the offset by 20cm.
