The bolt pattern on the wheel is a 5 on 114.3mm circle, or if you're from America it's a 5 on 4 1/2" bolt circle. 114.3mm is the same thing as 4 1/2"

You can put 17"/18" wheels on a DSM without spacers if you buy the correct offset. Save your money and buy the correct offset rims/tires the first time.

The rim size does not affect the speedometer, the tire height is what affects it. Again, you can buy a set of tires that have the same height (or close to) as the stock tires and not have to worry about using spacers or recalibrating the speedo.
