those almost look too big for the car. i think something that big needs a fat lip.

call me crazy, but why spend all that money on rims that look actually smaller than they are because they have a lip??? if im paying for 19's i want 19's. not 19's that look like 17's because the spokes are sucked into the rims.
i guess no one makes anything like this. how bizarre...guess i'll stick with my stock 7 spokers

are you saying that ALL 19" that have a lip look much smaller, OR just 19"s that have a lip and teh spokes that bend back towards the lip???

my 19" look bigger than my stock 18" touring wheels (the biggest "looking" stock wheel for the Z). but I will agree, some wheels do look smaller based on the design.

You know what I saw those exact same wheels that they used on the prototype on an Infiniti. I'm not sure the model but check out Infinit's site maybe you can find it there, maybe you can put a nissan center cap on them instead.
