as mentioned, yes, they will fit and depending on what your tire size is now, your speedo may be slightly off as well but, just slightly. question is, do you really want to install a set of 18" wheels? personally, i wouldn't as it is an odd size and one that'll make your future tire selection smaller and more expensive.
