just wondering if 18 inch rims will fit on the mx without any rubbing or anything

Been done, is possible w/ the correct offset on the rim. Try searching, theres a few threads on it

if you go 18" they you'l probably want to have at least 35 if not 30 sidewalls on your tires. so like 215/35/18 or something.

Of course the bigger you go, the less rubber you'll have, and the more rims you'll bend. Not to mention the brutal ride quality you'll have.

18s is no problem at all.
215/35-18 is perfect.
