when it comes to getting that flush look with out rubbing 5mm is a big difference. if your set up is not close to flush and dont have to worry about adding camber then its no big deal.

That sizing isn't really ideal for the Z in my opinion. There are a lot of other options out there.

[QUOTE=Bmurray350z;10010828]they do actually look decent. would look even better when lowered[/QU
What I dont like is the gloss paint and the silver center cap. If I keep them I will paint them matte black and make the center cap black with the Z emblem on them. Going to lower it next week.

9.5 rear with 20 offset + 28mm spacer = -8 with 245/45/18 bridgestones

You can use your existing lugs if you want and not have to run spacers
