you shouldnt need spacers. now if you do 18x11 in the back you might, along with rolling the fenders, and some BFH. your better off calling OE on the phone and telling them your car so they can get you the right offset.

if it's a std Vette offset then yes

IMO mainly because of the looks of the wheel sitting way too far inward
not because of them not fitting or working as is with no spacer
