So the spacers are only for appearances?

What's the maximum width tire you can run on the 18s? 235?

The other thing about the stock 18's is they're an inch narrower front and rear (compared to the OEM 19's), so tire sizes also shrink. This is great for winter setups but not ideal for other seasons or climates. I know Mike has had some wheels widened and it sounds like it's worked out well for him - maybe he can point you in the right direction if you want to go that route. GL.
