Rookie mistake (Wheel spacing) 200

SO we scored some wheels for half price day at the bone yard...
put $450 worth of new tires on them (wore out tires were getting scary)
and my dumb butt was convinced that ALLLL Rear Wheel Drive wheels were at the 20mm offset (or less?) but NOOOO...
The 7 hole/spoke semi chrome (cannot find the name) wheels from the 1998 S90 has a 43mm offset... I was in a hurry to beat the sunset and I got to the 3rd wheel before I realized that neither one was spinning. Gees!

Alternative?

Seems to be a lot of coin for some wheels that are discolored/flaking.
I'll try digging out the brick mortar from my forehead...

~sigh~
