Default Which size Wheels to get?

I have an 04 Z roadster and planning to get wheels but not sure what size to get. First, 19" or 20". Also, staggered 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the back or 9.0 in the front and 10.0 in back. Which combo will give the best fit and look without having the tires stick out from the fenders. All comments and recommendations appreciated.

19's is the perferable way to go. 20's will look really good if you drop the Z. 19's will overall give you better tire options/sizes, not because manufactures make more tires in this size but because you have more well clearance to play with. With of rim depends on the offset. I have 10.5's in the rear with a nice offset. These will tuck nice and flush with the fender. 8.5 or 9.0's will be fine in the front.

PS. You'll get better responses if you post this in the Brake/Wheel/Suspension thread.

yeah +1. If you are going show then get 20's. If you are gonna go then get 18's for the best handling. Just make sure you keep it clean if you are gonna add 20's.
