the space saver spare is always a 19", irrespective of what size tyre is on the car. I know yours is a ful size spare, but that size is OK with your 18's.

I still carry an 18" as the spare under the car even though I'm running on 19" as the change in profile evens out to rolling radius issueAltox GSM FBH controller thread
