$2000 for 19" or 20" is going to be hard to get a good set of rims. Tires alone on 19" will be around $900-$1200 and 20" around $1100-$1400. You won't find that many good rims for $200-$250 a piece.

Make sure you get the right width and offset. A lot of cheaper brands don't make correct offset for the Z.

I just put some Privat Profils on my Z and they look freakin' SWEET!!! I love the rim, it's new, it's reasonably priced and it looks good.

Well, I guess you know what I pick right?

BTW - I got mine from Discount Tire I got the following setup:

Wheels:
18X8.5 Front
18X9.5 Rear

Tires:
Kuhmo Ecsta AXS
245/40/18 Front
275/40/18 Rear


Total cost with Lugs, 2 lug keys, the "special" balance, mounting, taxes and everything else you can think of was less than $1850 ($1846 to be exact).

Hope this helps.

I'd say get the Profils in black w/ a polished lip. I just got a quote from Z1 for $1050 shipped to my door for the 19s. Add tires to that i the correct sizes and your just under 2k.
