looks terrible but easy fix really.

18's look great on a Z but it has to be slammed or to close to slammed.

spacers, looks like you could get away with 20mm in the front and rear.

just because the wheels are made by volk doesnt mean its going to look good on the car regardless of the stance. fix the offset issues with spacers and get an aggressive dropping spring or coilovers and you will have great looking setup.

yikes, I agree with everybody. Problem with trying to remedy these wheels is none of them have a lip and 18s with a 2 piece wheel look bad on a Z. Just looks weak.

Yea I am getting the spacers and the springs after my next paycheck. Its going to be dropped 1.2 all the way around. Those pictures actually don't do them any justice.

Don't worry no offense taken to each there own and I like the way they look. They will look better with the spacers and lowering kit.

They look great, but with 18s your wheel gap is even bigger than with your stock setup. So DROP that S%$!!!

Your wheel offsets aren't as aggressive as most member's setup, but if you drop your Z, it should look great.

I think I know the deal on these... 8.5 and 9.5 right? They almost
look like sedan offsets. Prob from that dude in Jacksonville? Well -
hope you didn't cough over $1000.
