Default 2015 base wheels on Sport

Thinking of buying a 2015 Z with the Sport Package.
But prefer the 18" base black-finish aluminum-alloy wheels over the 19" RAYS forged alloy wheels.

If I swapped for the 2015 base wheels, would they clear the 2015 Sport rotors & calipers?
Is the lug pattern the same and would spacers be needed?
Thanks.

They would fit fine. In Europe, Sport and base come with the 18" base wheels. Just note that the 18's are only 18x8 and 18x9 where as the sport rays are 19x9, 19x10

If you want a similar look in a 19" wide wheel, I think the '15 NISMO wheels look similar, and they'll definitely fit. Getting a set for a reasonable price would be the trick.
