I'm new to the whole offset thing, in what way are they horrible? I think they look good having a big lip.

you need a spacer that looks like a 10x10 in n out burger.

Just because the wheels "look" like they have a big lip doesnt mean then offsets are good, or low (which most want)

See if you can re sell them or return them from whomever you bought them from.

While your searching for new wheels, learn about offset, what it means, and how to properly fit wheels to you car

They wont be sunk...they just wont fucking fit without spacers. Too low of an offset, the wheels will hit the suspension before the wheels even sit on the hubs.
