The need for spacers will be purely aesthetic, there is no fouling whatsoever.

maybe not but it will help with clearance on the front brakes and rear dust caps.

Same issue happens with TT comps and some mk4 alloys.

Well mine didn't, and I've changed the rear discs and bearings changed since as well, so that's 2 bearing caps I've had no issues with, hence my reason for saying.
