Get you a big hammer and do some "massaging." Buy a can of that undercoating and you'll be good to go. I wouldnt run a spacer on the rear. The 10.5 wheels should fit fine with the correct BS. Im running 11" wheels with a 325/45 tire and mine dont rub. I rolled my fenders and massaged my fender wells tho.

I have the 17x10.5 Torq Thrust M with 315s on my 2002 WS6 as well. There was no need for fender modifications or a spacer. My car is lowered (Strano springs and Koni 4/4) and I have had no issues with tire rubbing. When mounting your rear wheels lift the car by the differential and the 10.5s will mount up without issue.

I know my SS's did on the front with factory size tires and they still do with my C5's up front and I had to know in my inner fender on the back a little cause they were rubbing on the inside of the tires and they are 17x9.5 all the way around so IDK what is up with my car.
