Exclamation Enkei 92.. 1994 s13 Coupe

Hello everyone.
Heres the story.. Yesterday I bought 4 Enkei 92s with tires from a guy down here in south Florida. It was a 45 minute drive each way to pick them up. He claimed that they were 4x114 and on his cousins 1992 hatch.
I put the wheels in the back of my dads station wagon and drive home. I get home 40 minutes before I have to be to work so i just bring the wheels into the garage.
Today I go to put the wheels on and the lug pattern is too small!!
So im guessing they are 4x108(Mustang bolt pattern).

The front tires are 225/50/15
The rear tires are 275/50/15 Nitto 555R
Wheels say "Offset 0" on the inside and the guy I purchased them from claimed they were 15x8

I am trying to get my money back but the guy is being difficult. These are basically my dream wheels so if I could make them work that would be cool.
My car will be undergoing a V8 swap so I wanted to keep the drag radials in the back.

If by chance is it possible to make these work?? I have seen 1 inch adapters on Ebay.
I think ZG fender flares are sexy anyways.

My car is on RSR race springs.
Thank you.

i forget, are the 4 bolt hubs a uniform thickness circle hub? if so you could have the hubs redrilled to the new pattern, using the spaces between the current holes...

wouldnt work so well if they were the + shaped hubs...

no sure how may shops can actually do the little splines that keep the stud from spinning as you tighten the bolts, though... could always go ghetto and tack weld them in, but itd suck if you broke one...

Thanks a lot guys but I am probably going to try to sell them. I looked into drilling them out but the cost of having them machined will exceed their value by far. I will wait for the right lug pattern to come along. In between the lug wholes are empty pockets so I can not drill through there.
