Depends on the offset of the wheels and if you are lowered or not.
On my HB I have a 18X7.5 wheel with a 48mm offset with 225/40 18's on it. I am also lowered with MazdaSpeed springs and Camber links 1.5 inches in the front and 1 inch in the rear.

Also make sure it's a 5 x 114.3mm rim (not 5 x 110mm)

The offset is 48 and i think the stock is 52 so i should be okay. And the car is not lowered HOWEVER it will be soon =) But from the looks of it lowering my 3 shouldn't be problematic.
