At least my observation still stands and we know we can fit at least 19" rims for radials...
Based on the GS Race car concept I would believe 18 inch wheels may fit as well. That race car has 18 inch wheels, and unless they made the brakes smaller than stock (possible but not likely), they "should" fit.
