It may not clear the calipers on the 350. I had to run 3mm spacer to get it to just clear in the front. Also, on Megan EZ coils, I am rubbing on every dip on the fender liner up front.

like a few others have already mentioned, there is a there is a will those wheels fit? thread where you could have posted this question. but since your post is after the fact...

those offsets are conservative enough where you won't need fender modifications to make them fit. but... (see below)

i would contact the manufacturer to find out if you need to run spacers or not, though i am pretty much sure that with your offset you will have to run spacers.

inno> heat your fender lining and "push" the lining out of the way. that, or you can just let the tire rub a hole in your fender lining.

You need a 3mm spacer in the front to clear is350 brakes. Otherwise you are good. Depending on your tire size, the fender liner might rub.
