Not sure I get your explanation or question ...but adapters / spacers is all you need to run different bolt pattern wheels,hopefully they are high offset so it can work .BMW tends to have low offset wheels ...what are the vette wheels specs ?

the wheel is the correct bolt pattern, they are 17/9.5 with a 56mm offset. im trying to figure out how much spacer i will need?

A 23mm offset is good enough ? Only speaking from e39 experience but that seems too high ..maybe e46 are better up ther

From what I understand they are very similar to the e36. Look up balleurs car, those are 9.5 all the way around with 33mm adapters.

e39 and e46 offsets are very different. e39s come with et18 to et22 stock. E46s come et38 to et42 stock. A 23mm offset for any 3 isn't bad with a 9.5
