Like obeewon said, that isn't enough information to figure out brake clearance.

I've personally owned the wheel you're asking about, so I can tell you that the 18x9 +37 is a low disk wheel and won't clear the LS400 calipers. It requires a 15mm spacer to barely clear. That wheel is also a universal lug pattern wheel, so you'll need to get 15mm slip on spacers with extended studs. Any rear wheel will fit, so that doesn't matter.

there's no way of telling with the width and offset of the wheel, only thing that matters is that it's 17" and the design of the spokes. i have 17x7 +40 winter wheels that clear my TT front brakes, so it's completely dependent on the style of spoke.
