If the bolt pattern is 5 on a 4.5" (114.3 mm) bolt circle, they would at least fit your car's bolt pattern.
But you'll have to provide the wheel width and offset in order to get meaningful tire size recommendations and how well (if?) they'll fit.
If your car has had the 14" Brembo brakes installed as a mod, know that not all 18" wheels will fit (there is an interference with the back sides of the spokes even though there is plenty of diameter room inside the barrel of the wheel).

Those FRPP BBS wheels (18x10) which they put on the FR500s are made to fit the S197, but one answer I've never gotten clearly answered (and I asked Ford at PRI) is that those wheels are made for 5/8" wheel studs and the street cars have 1/2", so I assume they just want you to use lugnuts with huge cones??
