Help with winter setup

Hello, I have a 2010 X5 with M Sport package (285/45R/19 in rear, 255/50R/19 in front) and am looking to get a winter setup for next season. I am thinking of going with 18s, non-staggered. Is there anything in particular that I need to buy besides tires and rims going from a staggered setup to a standard setup?

Thanks for all the knowledge on this site!

Nothing you need to change at all. Just take off the old set and put on the new rims/tires and you are all ready for the winter.

That is what I thought but someone told me because my wheels are "staggered", I might need a spacer. I did have that dumbfounded look on my face when he told me that. Just wanted to make sure! Thanks!
