you got too low of an offset & this pushes the wheel/tire outwards,
Offset needs to be in the 36--54mm range pending your wheel width & tire size selection!!

^^Exactly. Just b/c a wheel has the right bolt pattern doesn mean it'll fit properly. I have seen alot of people lately buying the wrong offset of wheels.
