to be honest im not sure. the off set of the wheels and the thickness of adapters may foul your arches. if you do a search on the internet for adapters they might have some more info. i think the question was asked on here not to long ago so perhaps a search might throw up a few more ideas.
most people just go with 5 stud set up though as it gives you far better wheel options in the long run.
im sure some one will reply with a more detailed option soon enough.
clive.

hmm, adapters, firstly 4x100 to 5x120 are a bit dodgy, i expect 4x100 to 5x112 would be similar, plus the extra 20mm thickness would take the wheels to et4 front, and et0 rear, which is going to be pretty pokey and need arch mods, plus those wheel widths make it hard to get any stretch to tuck the tyre inside the arch without running silly narrow tyres.
if there's space to drill another set of 5x100 holes in the wheels, you could use some nice simple 4x100 to 5x100 adapters, but are still going to get the width issue.
a proper 5 stud conversion would be a better option, but the cheaper e36 based stuff is designed for high offset wheels, so again the wheels would be pushed out towards the arch.
a 5 stud e30 m3 suspension setup would work well with those wheels, but they don't come up for sale often, and are the best part of a grand
