18 rims on 95 truck?

Hi everyone,
I am buying my neighbor's 95 F150 XLT 2WD short bed, with a regular cab. I think(?) it has 15 inch stock chrome rims. Will 18" aftermarket rims and slitely wider radials fit in the fenderwheels without rubbing? I was on some Web tire sites and they sold 15" to 18" ($169 to $269) rims. I am not into the 20s or 22s. I like the low wide look, but I need to know if 18s will clear. I may not even lower the truck.
Thanks for this killer F150 site.

You can fit 15 to 24 inch wheels on that truck. Tire size is the question. You can't run a 40x15.50-22 for instance.

Like Wandell said you can put about anything under that truck. Find out what the original tires size is, then find the wheel size you want and then use this calculator to find the tire the right size to keep speedo and MPG as close to original as possible. Tires size Calc.

This thing has helped me alot.
