^yes, they will fit

don't mean to get off topic but as far as wheel fitment i saw tommy's car from go tunning with 9.5 inch wheels all the way around, i was wondering if 9.5 inches in front would throw off any kind of balance in the steering, or make it feel heavy?

The 9.5 all the way around does take some modification and the steering is going to be heavier. The car will also tramline easier.

Will the 18X8s fit with a 1" drop? Any fender work needed?

Should you use the same tire all the way around or slightly different sizes?

I thought that it was best to use the staggered fitment for the S2k or the handling would be thrown off--is that true or is it OK to go with the same rim width all the way around?
