depends how low/how much camber/how much guard work you want to do/how much stretch.
people here are running like +10, i am running +24, others run around 20. i have stock bodywork and am on 19s, car's quite low and running -2deg camber up back with 245/35 tyres and guards arent shaved just rolled about half as much as stock. they sit a little bit in for me, they could come out at least say 5mm.
if you are happy to run more camber than me, say -3ish, and stretch like i have and shave your rear guards down, i dont see an issue. fitment will be good. i went a bit more conservative since i daily the car and didnt want to shave my guards for legal reasons.
as a very general thing, around ~20-25 offsets with some stretch, bit of camber and you're good. go more aggressive to taste..

that's a somewhat aggressive offset, so if you're much below an inch and a half lowered, you will probably have some modding to do to the fenders. And, if you're looking to tuck them, you'll have to be real low, which will require a ton more fender mods.
hell, check out shanec's sig. hahaha

like everyone has already said, it can be done, but to pull it off and it look good, expect to do some fender work. I would imagine that you will need to shave the fenders and might need to do a slight pull to make it work.. expect to max out your camber settings which will put you a lil over -3 degrees on stock components, and be running a 245/35 tire... certainly can be done.

hey thanks everyone for the reply and advice...I'm running on tein ha and planning to go low, but with massive fender work...i'm able to pull it off.
however, 18's does seem kinda small...if anyone have pictures of 18's on their gs, i would think about it.
