bbk in 18inch wheels

I've done some research but it seems most people have larger wheels with a bbk. will 14 inch rotors fit in the 18 inch stock coupe wheels. I am looking at getting the g37 brakes, or possible another bbk of 355mm.

14" rotors require a minimum of 18" wheels. But the offsets & disc type might also determine whether they fit or not due to caliper clearance.

Clearance will depend upon wheel design, pad size, rotor size, and caliper dimensions. Here is a pic of a StopTech 4-pot/4-pot 355mm set up with an 18" set of Enkei NT03+M wheels. I've even seen a pic of a set of 380mm Brembos on a set of 18" Volk TE37s.
