Bigger Wheels

I am interested in going from my stock 16" to 18" on my S430.
Do I have to do something special to fit bigger tires? Or can I just put them on as long as they dont rub? Thanks.

or 18 would look good too

You will need to get tires that correspond in size to the rims.(18" tires, 18"rims, 16"tires, 16"rims)
Good luck
