MTB Crankset in a Road Bike

Hello, i plan to change my road bike crankset, the Shimano Sora FC-R3000, 9-Speed, 50x34T, 170mm, my bike name is Cube Attain Pro Disc 2018, you may find specs of it in google, as far as i know i have to install mtb bottom bracket, it is press fit bb and as far as i know mtb bb are longer/wider than road bb the question is that if does the distance spacers will come with bb? i look whole google for the 2,5/5mm spacers for press fit bottom brackets and i cannot find one, the other question is how to unmount that bb that is currenlty with my bike and is it risky? for what i have to be patient while doing this? the crankset i plan to install is Shimano FC-U6000-2 CUES 175 mm, i would gently ask if also the front derailleur will be need to swap it to some mtb derailleur? if so what are you recommendations? i would like to those who did installed mtb crankset in a road bike to share with me with their experience, i do not want to make any mistake, thanks in advance.
