    Rims: 18" Enkei Evo5

    what is the offset and width of the rims in question? although i am inclined to say no they wont but with correct fitment im sure it is possible but again need to know the offset and width of said rim and 215 may be too wide but may not be.

        How exactly do you "roll a fender"? I'm not familiar with that term.

          18s will definitely fit, just dont lower it unless you plan on cleaning out your fender wells. i have a buddy with a 93 pro lx with 18s. they came off a civic.

              On a car that small? 18's? Even if it works it probably looks outright retarded. Maybe not to some but to me it probably would.

                18 rims should fit in the trunk, unless the rims are still on wheels...then you could get maybe 6 in the trunk and put another 6 or so in the back seat possibly.

                        I think the consensus is that you don't do this. Once again, if it looks that good to you, or, all your friends like that stuff and you want to impress them then go ahead. It's your choice.

                            Hey, I didn't even notice his user name. Maybe the 18" rims will make him feel differently about his Mazda. That would be the first plus I could see in that size wheel for his car.

                              I wouldn't push it with 18", less rubber more metal. You will some what compromise the ride a bit. Width if 195 would be great, 205 would maximum limit, 215 would be to big; unless you increase your offset and have your wheels stick out about and inch from your fender. It might be a problem if you car is lowered, unless you roll or cut it back your fender to increase radius so your tire don't scrape.
