18" Coupe Rims for Sedan?

I am sorry if this has already been answerd, but I was out in SOCAL last week and noticed a sedan with 225 45ZR 18 tires and a set of AT ITALIA wheels, and it looked smokin. After seeing it, I've determined that I must upgrade my stock 17"s to these tires, and instead of the ITALIA's, I would put the coupe 18" wheels on. Has anyone done this? Have pics to share? What size tire does it require? Best place to buy the coupe factory rims? Please advise. I appreciate your help.

I am selling my coupes 18" wheels and tires. From the dealer the wheels will cost you about $600-$800 I believe plus $250 per tire. The wheels are brand new, only have about 200 miles on them. I just got my car last week. I will sell them to you at a reasonable offer. Please remember that from the dealer they cost an arm and a leg. Let me know.

Buy aftermarket rims instead of the stock coupe rims.. although the stock coupe rims dont look bad, you can get a lot better looking aftermarket rims.... and save some $$$$

check out www.tirerack.com it actually shows you what the rims will look like on your car... Also consider getting bigger rotors... 18"-19" rims with the stock rotors looks kind of weak... the rotors look way to small and dont fill in the rim.. (in my opinion anyways)...

So I guess my final question is this. Can I put the coupe 18" rims on tires with the size 2254518? Those are the tires I want. Please advise. Thanks.

As long as the offsets are the same for the coupe as they are for the sedan (which they should be), then Yes, the tire/rim package of the coupe will fit the sedan...
