You asked for an opinion so I'll give mine. The Z is a sports car. Therefore, it's not the kind of car (IMHO) where a wheel mod should be to ADD weight. Air weighs less than metal as does rubber.
But....if you're looking to turn it into a pimpmobile, get 20s (in chrome).
If you're looking to shave off a bit of weight, go with gram lights or a similar light wheel in a smaller size.

Lookin' Sharp Quad!
Any plans on a front lip or bumper? I like the sides but seems incomplete without the front. Not having the rear you can get away with.
The wheels are not over the top. 20's may be heavier, but I'm not looking to shave a tenth of a second on my 1/4 mile ET. If the wheels look good and you are OK with the performance, then go for it. I see nothing wrong with 20's. Especially if you go with a lightweight wheel.

Mine came with chrome 20s from the dealer (I didn't want to pay for them, so they just gave them to me with the car). Can't use my traction control. They are a bit heavy, but they look alright, I suppose.

Here's mine!!!!!
I'm thinking of throwing some 20's on my roadster but i can't decide. The only thing i'm worried about is scrapping cause i sit pretty low as it is. I know alot of people on the forum hate 20's on a Z but i don't race or take it to the strip. My Z is simply cosmetic. What do you guys think?
Why?...... I like to be different and have my own style. Imagine if we all drive the same car with same wheels. I'd rather keep it stock if that was the case.
