If you mean 5 x 114.3 then it should fit with big adaptors.

Correct, E-Series are 0 offset.

meaning the wheel will be sitting 39mm too far in.

Ah I knew it was a low number but 0 is really low.

My BBS wheels have a 40 offset but I plan to adapt them to the car one day, for a laugh if nothing else. I wouldn't drive around with a 4 cm adaptor every day though, seems a bit dodgy.

i think the offset is very dependant on the width of the wheel.
0 - 10 offset is ok for eseries i think.
can't quite remember.

Sounds about right.

Also one important point to make, if this is about buying Jap-spec wheels because they are cheaper, bear in mind there is probably $400 worth of adaptors that will be added to the cost. It may be false economy. On the other hand there is a good range available if you want something different.

That makes sense.

SVO rims can be a bit hard to get, I bought mine new and paid almost $2k by the time they had tires.
