Default Couple questions about ordering snow/ wheel setup for 08 rwd is350

I know some guys run base model 250/350 17" wheels but I haven't been able to find any. So my plan is to get a tire rack winter tire and wheel combo setup, which will be easy.
I thought running the same recommended setup as for an is250 awd since it won't be staggered. My wheel choice that is cheapest is a 17x7.5 wheel +45 front and rear with a 225/45/17. The question is does anyone think there will be an issue with clearing the 350 from calipers?

The is350 selection recommends 8" wide wheels but I don't think that is necessary and is more expensive, that's why I'm going this route.

Also, aside from the tpms light coming on initially when starting the car, is there anything else annoying such as repetitive beeping or flashing while driving if I don't opt for new tpms sensors?

Hopefully a tire rack rep has some ideas but I wanted to try here as well.

Appreciate any help.
