Although that offset is not too agressive, but there still more to take into account.
1. Are you lowered?
2. how low?
3. What brand of tires are you going to use?
4. What size tire are you plannig on using?
All these have to be taken into account to be able to predict if there will be any rubbing issues.

Watch the brake caliper clearance on the front of the GS 350;
it's the same brake as the GS 430 and IS 350, and requires
a fair amount of caliper clearance.
Offset doesn't really have much to do with whether or not they'll
clear; this is determined by spoke profile. Consult the wheel
manufacturer!
Offsets look pretty good, rear can be a little borderline if you're
running wide tires like the Dunlop or Michelins.
