TCII is ok but Connoisuers really look right on a Z if you can get them in the right finish. Chrome looks incredible in these but I mostly don't like chrome. What color is your car? I think they may come in black chrome or gunmetal or something. If you search for advan there are some pics of chrome and gunmetal on a z in the archives somewhere. May have been 19s but simply incredible!!

I'm struggling cause I really want them but don't know what finish to get on a CS Z.

No lip and not sure how concave they are but the center is definately recessed quite a bit. Look kind of like wheels on the new anniversary Z.

yes, but for the concaved tc2, you'll have to get at least 9.5 width.
the low offsets are only for 9.5 and 10.5 width.

it sure is a sexy and light wheel.

Best concave wheels EVER IMO is Volk TE37! Absolutely sick with low offsets! My second choice would be the nismo wheels.

i started to like those type of wheels lately

the do-lucks are really cool but dont come in 19"

i also started to love the te-37s...problem is they dont make them WITHOUT a lip...if them came in a version with no lip they would be able to make VERY CONCAVE spokes

look at this pic of an M3 with te37s...SICK..but i dont know the offsets (its gotta be at least 9.5 and 10.5 widths)

They do make TE37's w/o a lip(well, they might have a very small lip, but it isn't polished or very noticeable)....the LE37T's are the same thing as the TE37's, but with the polished lip. Again, much better looking than those Advan's IMO...especially on the Z...One of the Esprit cars is a prime example of a great looking Z with the Volk TE's. It feels out the car alot better than those bland 5 spokes, and it also looks more concave to me! I'd say Volk TE37 all the way!
