Here's a link that can help you.
https://my350z.com/forum/media-share/161354-show-me-your-wheels-pics.html
Theres also a section in this forum just for tires/wheels. There are a few things to consider when buying your wheels.
1. Wheel size
2. offsets
3. Will it fit aftermarket brakes (in case you want to upgrade later on)
There are many great sponsors on this site. I personally dealt with Rick at http://statusautodesign.com/ and he has great prices and excellent customer service.

Have fun with the Z!

Learn to drive the stick better before you upgrade. Look for the lightest wheels you can afford that you like the look of.
Plus, the best upgrade that is worth 10x more is better rubber!! The stock rubber sucks!

If there's a car behind you, yes, use the brakes to avoid a collision but when its clear, try to start up the hill without the brakes that way you can get the feel of the car.
Heres a tread on Moding your car that you should read. It covers almost all topics and help you get started on the right track.
