you only install wheel spacers if you want the rims to stick out farther and increase your wheel base.

What are the specs on the wheels? I have the same ones, 18x7.5 and I believe +35 offset, with zero fitment issues. I'm running 225-40ZR18 tires. If you have that same spec to your setup, you won't have any issues that require spacers to fix.
