Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

If a new wheel is delivered that far off, your best option is to return for refund or replacement. I'd prefer a refund because that much of an error is a solid indicator of zero quality control.

HOWEVER.

First take a moment to confirm whether it's the wheel or your fork. Easy enough to do by simply removing the wheel and remounting it, flipped left/right. If the wheel is off, it'll be off by the same amount on the other side.

If it's still off center in the same direction the wheel is fine, and your fork is off.
