Buy some wheels that are the correct offset.

take the plasticarch off and use an angle grinder on it or use a dremell tool to take it back. and stick the plastic arch back on. check its not rubbing on the arch bolts too.

That doesn`t look like a 75mm drop! More like 40mm. Anyway what offset are your rims? Looking at the pic i would say 40-35 Offset which is why they are rubbing. One option is to take the arch trim off, apply some bonding stuff to the insid so it sticks to the body, rebolt back on the car, alow to dry, then cut the bolts off from inside the car arch.
