if i were you, i'd re-think that twice, maybe 3 times
5 lug on a fit isn't going to happen in 2-3 hours labor time, it's most likely going to be custom and cost a lot of money
there's tons of 4x100 wheel choices out there that are better and cheaper

Re: fit hub size? (n1_egsex)
well im coming from vws so i have bbs on the brain. i got a set of 16x7 bbs rs in 5x114.3 for 200$. with that being said im willing to pay for a fill and redrill. ive seen a fill and drill on the same spec wheel. the wheels i picked up have an offset of 50 wich is pretty good for my fit.

Re: fit hub size? (fitfreak3)
after calling around to some machine shops i found out that filling is teh most expensive part. i thinking of trying out that alumaloy stuff to fill on my own then taking it to a machine shop to drill. am i heading into the danger zone?

I would just sell those wheels you have and buy another set in 4x100 lug pattern. It just wouldn't be worth the headache IMO.
This site http://www.memoryfab.com usually has used BBS wheels at a fair price. Take a look at that site and compare pricing so you have an idea what you can sell your wheels for. Good luck

Re: fit hub size? (fitfreak3)
not only are 4x100 bbs rs hard to come by but are also usually over $1000. im also looking for a 16 and thats even harder to find. another thing is offset. the ones i have are 50 while teh 4x100 ones are usually in the 30s.

+35 offset and up is okay because thats what I have on my Fit. 16x7+35
Just keep a lookout on the 16 BBS because I've seen a few before. As for the 4x100 lug pattern, it's not that hard to find because it's the same lug pattern as many VWs come in.
Sell your wheels for $900-$1000 and that should cover the costs involved in finding a new (used) set of BBS in your lug pattern
PS: another good site for used BBS is http://www.takumiproject.com
