Mine were fine on ET 35's lowered on billie's and HnR's but ET 28 sticks out a fair bit more so you might find that they rub. It would look good though

ET30 on that rubber still clears ok, though i think you might start touching the outer rim of the arch under heavy breaking or sudden road undulations. rolling the arches should sort you and it will feel nicely planted as you have widened the track of the car from ET37 to 28

Not forgetting that you'll get 8x18 to replace 7x16 so your actual width will change by 9mm offset plus 12.7mm rim width so just over 20mm. Not sure how much you'll need to mod the plastic arch liners if it rubs. The rear arches are already pretty much rolled for you too
