    Depends what size the wheels are and what offset
    You can be anything you like on the internet, so why do so many people choose to be stupid?

    offset means very little without knowing the width.

    Google wheel offset and learn what it is, then go and take some measurements of how your factory wheels fit in the guards, and work out how the new wheels would fit. It's easy enough for someone to say "Yes it will fit" or "No, it won't fit" but that's not really very helpful for you in the long run if you don't understand it.

    you can actually fit either 225/45/17 or 225/40/18 in there! but YOU MUST ROLL THE FENDERS Front and rear! i see the 18 inch you talking about is 45 offset, its sweet!

    Very little difference.....You could also run 235/40/17 for "fatness" but it is a little wide for the wheel width.
