18s are not ideal on classics but you could get Whiteline adjustable lateral links and add some negative camber to clear the arch lip but you might have to roll the lip but that’s not great either
 
Kyb do good shocks defo worth looking into pare em with a decent spring nice setup imo
 
Hard to get 18” right as baz said rolling arches is not a thing you should be doing . So really 17” and you can drive anywhere 18” is only for tipping around really
 
What size tyre have you on the Revolution's? My mate has 18 inch Revolution's on a classic with 215-35-18 tyre's. Pretty sure the Revolutions comes in a 7.5 width for a classic.
 

18inch Wheel Fitment Advice Please

Hi, the standard wheels on my type r are 16inch x 7, ET 53 with 205/50/16 tyres. I have some 18inch x 7.5, ET 38 & I was planning to put 225/35/18 on the rims (which is the same size as what was fitted to P1's with the 18inch wheel option). I have been on the 'will they fit' website & that...

These two threads will tell you all you need to know re 18s on a classic
 
I just put them on as other wheels were sh*t had them on a hatch and they look lovely but I don’t think I will keep them probably go for 17 on a better suspension set up , it’s a pity though the 18s fill the arches so well
 
The car and the wheels are nice on their own but 18s are way too big on classic Impreza or legacy imo
