IIRC the SC430 rims have a smaller offset so the 25mm spacer may not bring it out enough to clear. I could be wrong.... but I have a set of SC430 rims with that tire size going on them in about a week for a different car... I'll slap them on my LS and see how they do.

those wheels with minimum 15mm spacers (go 20mm to be safe) will clear.

but those tires are too big, 245/45-18 rubs a tiny bit but is fine at stock height.

i'd run 245/40-18 or 225/45
