Those are old EMPI 8-spokes for the VW Beetle. And, they're 4x130. Due to the design of those wheels, you're not going to be able to re-drill them without running in to the center bore. Your only option is to go with some adapters, if you plan on using them (not that I would, given the fact that they're typically 5.5" wide).

yeah I did hours of research , and tried to find ways hoping it'll work, honestly I like the design of it. But I suppose my best bet is to recycle them or "try" to sell them?

Thanks for your help!

They'll sell in the VW market (like VWVortex or TheSamba).
