I’m not sure that you can without making the ride and safety horrible. That’s about 20mm further out than most suggest so in theory, tires will need to be 40mm narrower than standard. You’d be looking at a 185/55/17 (not even sure it exists...) or some absurd stanceboi camber.

Nope. Wont fit. Return the wheels if you can.

You need ET47, often written on rims as IS47. Many E46 also have this offset. Return those ET20.
