15x7 rim 40 offset not working

Hi
I just put new rims on the car they are 15×7 with a 40 offset.
When I backed up sounded like brakes or simething was dragging and the emergency break would not disengage. Was heading to work so didnt have time to look at it. And didnt drive it last night after I put them on. From everything ive read on here there shouldnt have been a problem,am I wrong ?
07 r56 cooper S
Only thing im thinking is it says jcw in the door sills and has jcw body parts so maybe it has jcw breaks ??
