With the extra inch of rim width vs the 8.5" wheel options, and 30mm offset, these wheels will have 0.14" more backspacing than your stock SS 1LE fronts. You may need spacers to clear everything on the inside of the front wheels (rears will be completely fine without spacers for sure). I doubt it, because I know someone who used 19x10 et23 wheels with 305/30/19 tires and no spacers on his 1LEs and it didn't touch anything. If you do have any clearance issues (mainly thinking about the strut), you may be able to slightly clearance where the wheel touches and avoid spacers. If you need spacers, 3mm should be enough, and I think you can run those without installing longer studs.
