Yes as the rears are pretty sunk. You're biggest issue is the front brake clearance. I tried putting a set of wheels with snow tires on but they won't clear the front calipers. Waiting for my spacers to come in. I did the test fitting and I'm planning to run 15mm F and 25mm R spacers on stock 17s.
Can't decide if I want to stagger my wheels or not. I don't have much knowledge on Rwd vehicles.
It’s a personal choice. Staggered wheels are mostly seen on RWD sports cars and serve the purpose of getting the most grip/traction available. It’s unlikely that a 430 will be pushed to its cornering and acceleration limits enough to justify staggered wheels.
Cons: staggered wheels cannot be rotated F to R and if you have directional tires then they can’t be rotated L to R either. Your tire life may suffer. Increased cost. More road noise due to a larger road contact patch.
Pros: everything I mentioned initially that doesn’t apply to these cars. And they look way better.
With all that being said, I am about to get some wheels, and of course I’m getting a staggered setup! Why would you have a baller car like the LS and skimp on some weenie wheels?!?! LOL!
I have a set of staggered BC Forged wheels in 19" that I am dreaming of the day I have time to get them fitted with the suspension I have. Just haven't had time, been over a 2 years.

Nice wheels. What brand are they? Size? Are they for sale?
