18" Wheels on a Prelude are definitely gonna look great and if your getting a good deal then I can see why you'd be excited. In my opinion, an 18" wheel is about the biggest you want to go on a Prelude, unless you have a showcar, with that said there are a few things to consider when putting 18's on there. If you can get us the tire size we can tell you more and if you can get the wheel offset then we can tell you even more. The main concerns are the width of the tire (as it can cause interference with the steering knuckle or strut), the overall diameter of the tire (as it can cause interference with the shock tower, fender or steering knuckle and strut), the "profile" of the tire or the "sidewall height" which is a aspect ratio between tire section width and tire sidewall height (this can effect diameter and in turn cause interference if it is too great) and the other thing to consider is wheel offset (as it determines where the wheel sits depth wise, in the wheel well). Here are some diagrams to help you learn about wheel and tire sizing:
