Can you get under your wheel and take a look? I have a 50offset and had no issues. When I added the -1.5 degree camber I have to use a 3mm spacer. Im also running a 215 tire.

Why spend money on rims that don't fit well? Get it in lower offset, closer to the stock 45 offset.

38MM TO 48MM any more any less you are porobably going to have problems. Of course you have to consider the width. Stay under 8 and you're probably ok.
