Yup it seems so, but you had better check the clearances with your own suspension set up.

18" silver spiders look great on my Speed 6 Cerb, but be warned the 18" wheels have a tendancy to buckle, so no good for riding the kerbs at Donnington!

The fronts from a tuscan will fit with some minor mods. There is not really any such thing as cerbera spider wheels. The tuscan rears will not fit. although I think they might fit very late cerbs?
I have got a tuscan rear spider in my garage!

tuscan fronts fit, tuscan rears do not fit.... Had a little trouble with rubbing (oh-er missus) but after having my tracking sorted out by Austec they are fine!

i'm going to take my rears off tonight to fit new disks on. But i've had them off several times before and i'm sure they've got "REAR" on the inside.

no rubbing or problems

Dam does this mean I have to take my Tuscan rears off then
I have had no problems with the rears I have heard that some cars need slight shaving of the rear arches.

Tuscan rears will fit but you must use a 35 profile tyre. Even then it can rub the wheel arch with any large amount of suspension travel. The rears are 0.5" wider with a bigger offset on the hub compared to fronts.

I had 16" Tuscan wheels on my Cerbera for a while and the offset is different front and rear. Fronts are 38mm and rears are 25mm (compared to the standard 16x7.5" wheels with their 35mm offset).

So I imagine the same is true of the larger spider wheels.
