on a stock spring, I don't see why not. Even if on trd's. Anything lower may get you some rubbing.

I have 18's on stock suspension
225/40/18
If you turn all the way to the LEFT you can feel a little rub
I have had them on for about 10,000 miles and havn't noticed any unordinary wear though

What size wheels exactly? 225/40R18 will fit anything from 18x7 to 18x8".

krdshrk is right, how wide is you rim? im 225/35/R18 on 18x7 wheels WITH Tein S techs and im about 3-4mm clearance wheel fully turned. and just incase you dont know metric, 3-4mm isnt much, it was soo close the tire shredded through half of 1 one of my undercar light kit wires cuz the installer ran the wire right where the tire would rub on the inner well,Tard!!. until i noticed the shredded wire i didnt realize how close my inner clearance was.

it should work fine, thats the same size tire they put on the 18 upgrade enkies from the dealership.
im dropped on H&R sport springs with that size tire on 7.5 wide rims (almost 1.5 front, little less rear)
and i only ran into the smallest rubbing issue on the driver side after i went and fixed camber from negative back to spec. hit some bumps and it wore a small hole in the plastic guard, i think its due to the plastic being adjusted a little wrong to be honest.
