What is the offset of the wheels? Which model did they come off of? Some Porsche offsets (944, 911) are 52 & 53.5et respectively. Others measure in the 60s [928] and some in the high 40s.
What does this mean for you? You can get adapters and run them SAFELY with a lower cost than having them filled and redrilled. You will have a much easier time selling them as well because others won't want to be a wheel that is structurally compromised if they have any sense.
There is a group buy on adapters in the classified forums. Best of luck.

Not possible, bbs rs never came in 4x100 with a 34 bolt centre, rs003 are a 15" 30 bolt centre.
If your offsets are already low you could swap the centres for a set of 4x114's and have them redrilled, Porsche centre bore is way to big to run a 4x100 redrill safely.
But, if you have 15mm or more to spare on the offset go with the adapters like everyone has mentioned.
