upgrade wheel with different offset

I found a set like new condition of X6 wheel 19x9 offset 48 front, and the rear offset is 18. I just wonder if I can swap my 18x8.5 wheel with 46 offset with this? What do I need to do to accomodate the rear offset of 18?
Thanks.

wheel size .com result:
Positive scrub radius (about 29 mm). Scrub radius will be changed by 29 mm, this may affect the car's handling. Please check manufacturer recommendations. Please be aware that calculated value is approximate.

What does this means?

Kind of complicated but it changes the way the wheel is angled when the suspension is compressed or decompressed.
