Whats sad is that ADR makes wheels that fit the Z, with proper offset, in 18", for only like $500/set. And you had to go cheaper then THAT?

Get some Rotas or used wheels. Look on discounttiredirect.com for deals they occasionally have. Search for the right specs. Those are NOT meant for the Z, even if they weren't ugly.

if I were you, put the stock ones back on before you get shot. Sale those to some one that wants to make some bar stools out of them because that is the only thing I can see them fit. The just keep looking in the F/S section. There are some nice deals there, at least once a week you see some awesome deals, **** I sold my set of 19s TEs with tires for $1500. If you can't find any keep saving money then you really will be able to get something that you really want. Just have some patience and don't jump on some thing because you are just want some rims, then you are going to regret it.

I could get these with tires installed for a little over $1200. He could've done a million times better.

heres what i'd get

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...3&autoModClar=



They are $249 each (there where 550 a piece, they are on sale), $1000 plus tires, they are SSR, which are high end wheels (its what i have), they are also light at 24 pounds for 19s. They are proper offset. I didnt look at tires, but i know you can get a set of 19 tires for 500 or less.
