Will this wheel and tire setup fit an SS/TC?

Would this setup work on my 08 SS/TC?

The specs are as follows.

17"X8.5 +30 OFFSET 5X114.3 BOLT PATTERN
245/40ZR17 95Y TOYO PROXES T1R TIRES

Please keep flaming to a minimum for those who think it is "obvious" that I should already know this info. Thanks

At 30mm offset, you lose 7mm(0.28 inches) between the strut and rim.
At 30mm offset, the wheel sticks out 31mm(1.22 inches) more.

Offset doesn't make a difference if it'll clear the caliper or not, it's matters if it's a high or low disk rim.

You have a 5x110 lug pattern, the wheels you posted are 5x114.3

You can try to put them on, but the holes won't match up.

No. You need a wheel that has a 5x110 bolt pattern and an offset between +35 and +42. You will also need to confirm that they will clear the Brembo calipers before buying them.
