Wow...please seriously tell us that they aren't 7.5 inches wide on all four....and if they are with those offsets your wheels are going to look goofy as all hell. Even sticking wide tires on those is not goin to be good in the least.
I just CANCELLED THE ORDER so there will be no more confusion. It was close he siad if i didnt come in today they would have been shipped , so he called and had the wheels cancelled. So instead I ordered The TSW THRUXTONS. 19"
There are you happy .
Thanks guys for your help i cancelled in time, i didnt want these rims going on then looking like crap!! I couldnt even find a Z with them on. I just wanted to have some rims that nobody had Thats all, But ohh well its cool.

I'll take pics and everything later when they are in . cause they only had three in stock and they have to find the 4th.

Yeah those Thruxtons ought to look good. I saw a few pictures of them in hyperblack (I think) on a black Z and it looked killer. If possible though, get in touch with the company you ordered the TSW's from and have them give you the offsets for the front and rear wheels. FYI, the offset determines how far your wheels stick out from the mounting hubs, i.e. how far they protrude away from the car. The lower the offset, the farther out your wheels sit.
Get that info and let us know, so we can make sure you got it right!

These wheels are not TERRIBLE(btw, not terribel) I think they will look good, not to sure about the +40 offset on the front though, if you get that i would definately get some 15mm spacers..
