Tire sizes

This is concerning the front tires.
Will this fit? 245/45/17 17x8 et 37.
Lowered w/ H&R spring. 1.3 inches in the front on #3 pads.
For a 99 E430 Sport.

I was told by a shop that it would rub, but I have 245/40/17 on in the front now and it's ok.

Got them mounted and it doesn't rub. It's really tight near the suspension, but clears it.
