Might be too tight on the inside - its cutting it pretty close. But with that tire size, you *might* be able to get away with it!

Go for something with a lower offset, or space them out.

Stop looking at wheels that have a higher offset than stock! You generally need to start looking that things +35 or lower when looking for wheels wider than stock.

you'd be better off just buying wheels that fit right in the first place but its your car and yes a 10mm spacer(and undoubtedly longer wheel studs) would make them fit in the front.

Dont waste your money on skinny wheels like that. All you will be doing is increasing your unsprung weight, just so you can have some weak 18s with FF offset.. Dont be a ricer, save your money.

18 x 7.5 is a garbage size

he should pay YOU 350 bucks to take them off his hands.

that's a really narrow width considering how large the diameter is. in other words, skinny tires and alot of extra unsprung weight! yay!
