Default Will 18's fit?

I was looking at the brakes/caliper on the new camaro and I have a set of 18" drag radials but It looks like a tight fit. Please let me know.....If they do I will be buy a cheap set of track wheels

I use an 2006 ZO6 front wheel. It's 18" and clears the calibper. No spacer required and the bolt patten is the same. The C5 Rims are different.

Thats alot guys. I am more impressed with the car each day me and the wife drive it to work. I haven't gone full open throttle thru all the gears cause its barely broke 300ish miles and its first full tank. I noticed 2nd gear is pretty stout though. Pics will be soon as we clean it again.
