the 18" that come standard in the car fit over the sports brakes... all the 09 cars in Australia were sold with sports breaks but with the 18" wheels... this is a sore spot for a lot of us

Base 18" 370Z rims will most def fit over the sport package brakes.

I also have snow rims (TR Motorsports C2) that are 18" but they were guaranteed by Tirerack that they will fit. They clear the sports pack calipers.

So, not ALL 18" rims will clear the brakes. (Because you also said "any" 18" wheels)
