2000 S500 rubbing issues with new rims?

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had experience with this model car(2000 S500 4 dr) with this type of rim (see ebay listing)?

Problem is: If I hit a decent size bump I hear a tire rub??

Here is the link
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...i%3D1&viewitem=

If that doesnt work you can type in #: 300407274505

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My question is: I am thinking I need spacers? anyone know of size or if that is in fact the case?

Thanks in advance for your time,
This forum has been helpful before, so thank you for that.
