5x112 with Adapters HELP!

So i have a 2008 infiniti g35 sedan.
i came into some luck and got some kmc 693 maze wheels 20 inch wheels, i think +40 offset , they were very cheap so i couldnt pass up on the offer.
the bolt pattern on em is 5x112, the guy i got em off was using adapters for his hyundai genesis.
So, i got the 20mm spacer adapter( the one you torq down on your rotor and get new studs)
the wheels poke out a lot, Im on stock suspension.
Spacers dont feel that safe, cant find many that convert like these, dont even know the brand or the size( owner said 20m)
So im here now.
The wheels fit fine, i like the look, but i dont like the "unsafe " spacers, i get shaky car a lot and when im driving im afraid they will fall off ( there isnt anything serious making me think that tho)
i can either get the wheels redrilled, go 2m bigger, guy at a shop said it would be 50 each rim, so about 200 for a set,
Should i just bite the bullet and get them redrilled and put on my car? again i like the look, they were cheap. also would the wheels still fit fine without the 20m spacer?
I understand lots of questions plz try and help thank you! i can upload photos soon
i just need a alternative that will make the car safer to daily with the rims

Welcome to the site!
If they were expensive wheels I would consider the drilling, but for a set at that price point I would resell them and get wheels w/ the correct bolt pattern in an offset that will fit well inside the fenders. And I wouldn't run them w/ those spacers as you've noticed some issues when doing so.

Before you purchase new wheels let me know (or other members on the site) and can get you dialed in to the perfect offset & tire specs for the fit you want.

the person I got these off told me they fit my Infiniti. I was led to believe they were 5x114 until I put them on my car and realize they aren’t made for it
I have been trying to sell for weeks!
Would a 20x8.5 +40 offset rear and front
with 245/35 will it fit a Infiniti g35 sedan stock height, will the wheels fit ? At this point it’s just easier redrill since nobody has been wanting to buy these wheels

Offset & tire sizing is fine, if you want to go ahead w/ the re-drill that's up to you, I wouldn't, but if you like the wheels then give it a go. You should also invest in hub adapter rings that will make your new wheels hubcenteric. Most aftermarket wheels are 73.1mm and the Infiniti bore is 66.1mm, the rings will help eliminate the vibrations at speed. Just confirm your new wheel bore size, ebay has aluminum ones (which are better than the plastic ones) for about $10 give or take.

The spacers adapters are not hubcentric.
What type of hub ring would I use for my rotar to center the spacer and then have more ring to center the wheels when On the spacer
also are spacers safe for a long term daily use ?

No, I was referring to getting your wheels re-drilled and ditching the spacers. Once you get the wheels re-drilled you then use the hub adapter rings to keep your aftermarket wheels a hubcentric fit. Here's an example of what I'm talking about~

Yea I thought I was able to put those rings on my spacers to make it hubcentric
are spacers ok for daily use ? I cannot find any spacers that are 5x14 to 5x112

In order to use those adapting spacers you'll need at least a 15mm thick set, this will give you that wheel poke, also not easy finding them w/ the proper hubcentric sleeve, so that vibration you're getting will be present.
