is it just me or is 265/30 WAY too small?

stock rears are 26.7" tall and 265/30r19 is only 25.3".

not only that, but with 245/35r19 (25.8" tall) your stagger is BACKWARDS

you need a 35 profile on the back, otherwise your sidewall is going to be too small, and you run a higher risk of dinging them in a pothole. Also, i don't think those wheels suit the Z.

Nice wheel. I almost bought those, but went
with Axis Shine instead.

They don't look bad, but they don't look like anything special either, you could do worse. I also dont like the convex face either.
