Hope yours is at least a 4-lug bolt pattern...

You don't mention the offset.

Why would you want to put heavy *** wheels like that on your NA???

By using an 18" you are going to run into fitment and load capacity issues. Due to liability and saftey issues i can't even recommend an 18" tire for your car. Something else to keep in mind is the amount of unsprung wieght you are adding to each corner of the car by using a wheel that big.
