Well given all the details of the wheel specs I'm sure they will fit.

you have no info in that paragraph you wrote, the only thing relevant was 18s... we need wheel width/offset and tire sizes.... I wouldn't spend a shit ton of money unless I knew they would fit....

Honestly, you should spend the money to get four (4) new tires. It sounds like the tires that were on the rims and were set at a very negative camber which has bent the metal inside the tires. It will bend back once you start driving but the tires will make a droning noise occasionally when driving which will eventually go away. Plus the car will be not be as stable when driven at speed. Ask me how I know this.

18x7 all around? Don't do it. Not only is the car going to look funny, but you won't be able to run a wide enough tire in the rear.
