I run flipped rims, not on road, the more offset the better in my eyes stability wise, more stress on bearings etc though keep an eye on them and tighten them up when needed and its no big deal imo.
Changing offsets wont be cheap, im guessing their flipped already or have been made with huge offset, id leave it like that, 37s cant be driven on road anyway so offset wont bother you for legality reasons.

i didnt explain properly... the 5" is measured from the inside of the rim to the inside flanged face... so the wheel is too close to the springs... i want to bring the flanged face closer to the inside edge... so its closer to 2.5" or 3" moving the wheel outside the wheel arch more

Don't know where you are in vic but you can try;
Bass Ag repairs
cornet bay (along bass highway towards phillip island)
03 9739-7796
i belive they were called something else once which has escaped my mind
they do custom wheel mods etc
