Are you doing dual split rear? 18" should fit but I would measure it. Look at Flowmaster or Magnaflow tips they have some nice 12" and 13" tips but they are expensive if you order from them directly.

18 inches are good..even 22's won't be bad..just put the tip to where you want it to be over your existing exhaust pipe, they won't be sticking out of the back by 16 inches if you slide it up a bit futher over the pipe
