Best advice is to sell holden wheels as much as you can quickly and find new wheels

Bolt on stud converter can be bought cheap but will get messy if you get pull over by cop and get a defect for them

Save the time now and find new wheels that are 5x114.3 not commodore 5x120

Shoudln't be too much of a problem to redrill them.

would suggest selling them. I personally don't like the idea of redrilling wheels

I wouldn't redrill them, it will weaken the wheels, only other suggestion if you REALLY want to run them is to use bolt on adapter plates. But bear in mind they would have to be around 25mm for it to clear your current studs.

Most likely they will have to be custom too because I cannot imagine why anyone would want to run 5x120 on 5x114.3 (although some bmw rims are pretty great)

you can get blank inserts and get them to redrill them. I think the company is called Neale Wheels.

What no-one has mentioned is the offset. Commodores are most likely 0mm, whereas Hondas will have somewhere around +35, maybe a bit less, because on FWD cars the hub faces are further out, so even if you could fit the Holden ones, they'd be sticking out well past your guards.
