Default question about maybe needing spacers

hey guys i am buying c6 wheels for my 02 ws6. the wheels i am going with are the chrome c6 wheels from afs, link to them are http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AFS-8...49804860QQrdZ1

they are 18x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the rear with an offset of There aretwo 18" x 9.5" (+56mm offset with 7.45" backspacing) rims for thefront and two 18" x 10.5" (+56mm offset/7.94" backspacing) for therear.
The lug pattern is 5x120.65mm.

on the rear i am going to put a nitto 315/30/18 and a 275/35/18 in the front. my question is, is that will i need a spacer for either the front or the rear? and ifso where can a get a spacer that will fit and work for my application? thanks for all the help guys

i believe the offsets are good to go, but to get 315s your gunna need to bang the inner wheel wells in

Also, you may need a spacer in the rear to clear the bump stops. Or you can jack the car up from the pumpkin.

Or some cut out the bump stops, but that isn't recommended.

Btw, nice wheel choice

ok cool thanks for the help guys, i had already cut the bump stops out, knowing that they would need to come out. they should be fine because i never go over any bg bumps with my car anyway, its not my daily driver, so far it has been fine, thanks again
