u dont need to change the servo, some people convert to a mk5 escort servo for a better pedal feel, u will need to cut/roll the arches and trim the plastic arches to get 18's to fit, personally i wouldnt bother with 18's as they will ruin the handling 15's or 16's are best for handling and grip

As above and don't put 18's on unless you are trying to impress the kids at the local McDonalds cruise
