Pass on the wheels then. You'll end up buying wheels twice if you buy new 18's. Trust me.
I know it's not what you want to hear... save the money.

18 is fine, but don't get something with a thick lip, otherwise the spokes gonna be shorter and it'll look like a 17 |

Check out this thread ms. pint:
18's on a 370z Nothing wrong with 18's. Guru loaned me his spare set of 18's when I had my rims painted, and the ride was a marked improvement over the 19's. VDC-OFF will tell you the same thing. Sure you are ultimately giving up some performance, but for the amount of time you really push your car, a more comfortable ride (relatively speaking). As far as unsolicited advice, here's mine - save your money to get what you really want or you will be either miserable and/or buying another set of rims.

x2 18's will leave weird gaps, probably not the look you are going for.
