the bolt pattern is like half a millimeter different. some on here say it matters some say it doesn't. It's your call if you think that little bit will have any adverse affects...

It depends on the width, offset, etc. The thing is there is more to fitting then it just being able to bolt it on. Yes there are plenty of people on here with 18s but again it still may not fit. It could rub.

This may be of some help to you to see what I'm talking about. There are a lot of things you need to take into consideration when picking out wheels.
