Oh, absolutely. Believe me, I was happy and full of sugar when I went to the dealership with my title and fobs in hand ready to have them reprogrammed. I wasn't even upset with having had to spend...

Ok, so again, pardon my ignorance... but just to make absolute sure..

Even though the rear wheels ARE wider, I can still put 225/50 R18 on them just fine?
