my old black G had the 18in OEM coupe wheels but FYI those wheels are staggered. I think 18X8 and 18X8.5 maybe. Probaly would matter if you ran the same size tires front and rear.

Yes they'll fit. I'm running the Wilwood 6 pot fronts and there is plenty of clearance.

Coupe 18s are same size all around, coupe 19s are staggered.

Mustang wheels look on your old ride, nice job! What are the offsets on those and would they clear BBKs?

You running any spacers? What size are your disk? I might have to get 18's for the winters.

Sorry I missed this. Check the photo above of my sedan with the orange BBK. Yes, those v.1 track wheels clear Brembo's with plenty of clearance and even my current BBK with LOTS of room to clean the calipers up.

In fact, there is more clearance with the v.1 18's than with my current 19" BBS

They should clear. Those wheels came on Saleen Mustangs which had 13" and 14" brake packages. Plenty of aftermarket options for them, and cheap. $180 or less a wheel, with a few different finishes. Chrome, polished, black, black chrome, silver, white, etc. Factory OEM wheels are $$$$ though. The quality on the aftermarket ones is okay.

18x9
5.9" BS
+24 Offset

18x10
6.3"BS
+22 Offset

Will need hub spacers though.

i put a set of Bullitt wheels I had on my G35 back when i first got it. Looked kinds cool. I definitely liked it, but figured my friends would give me flak for it.

I ended up selling the rims though

I'm running 5mm spacers to get the wheels flush with the fender, but they aren't necessary to clear the Wilwoods. Disk I have no idea since they're OEM.
