Or will I need to get spacers? Having a hard time finding a definitive answer.

Thank you in advance.

Fits on MINIs except 2008+ JCW brakes, need 15mm wheel spacers in front

Actually, they might fit fine then. The first gen poor man's JCW brake upgrade is just the second gen's regular caliper, not the second gen's JCW caliper, so I might be ok! I'll message those guy and ask for sure though, thanks for the link!
