What kind of advice are you looking for? If you like them, get them. Just make sure you get the right sizes, 8.5 - 9.5 for the front and 9.5 - 10.5 in the rear with offsets close to +20.

I have them on my car right now and love them...I get compliments all the time..If they are not Volks, some people on here don't think anyone should have them. If you like them, buy them.

I have a set of 19" Matrix wheels on my Z. I got a package deal with Nitto 555's which are 255/35/19 up front & 275/30/19 out back.The offsets on the wheels, however are not what I wanted. They are too far under the wheelwell. That being said I like the way they look. Their weight might be a factor if you track the car otherwise I wouldn't worry. Mods are a very personal thing. IF YOU like them then go for it!!

I have the 20" version. I have had them for so long, I wouldn't know what a stock ride is like any more. I do remember when I put them on, that there wasn't a terrible amount of difference. The car is lowered on S-techs, so not that big of a drop. I am thinking about getting rid of the car, so the rims might be for sale soon.
