they should. stocks are 18x7.5 if i'm not mistaken. and i don't think half an inch width will make much of a difference. the only problem may be the brake clearance.

They may not fit a TC because of the Brembo calipers.

Im running 5x110 18/8.5 so those should be fine.

If the brembos get in the way you can buy spacers for not too $$$

To get a deep lip, you need wheels with spokes that curve inward. Chances are those curved spokes will hit the Brembo calipers. The Afterburners look like they may just clear, but there is no way of knowing without checking. Do you have any discount tire stores near you? If so, pay them a visit and they may be able to arrange a test fit for you.

Its no too bad...They are pretty sexy. I paid 700 for mine...with tires

But they were "used". rims are in perfect condition...the tires still had the tred hairs on them

You lose your deposit if you don't buy them. Ask them if they are willing to order them and make sure they are going to fit before you commit to buy them.
