Default 19s or 20s

I have been looking at several diffrent types of wheels and almost have my mind made up. But should I go with 19s or 20s.
What are the pros and cons about 19s and 20s. And can someone please explain to me how to roll the fenders.
Thanks
Nick

Well, its a hard question to answer. Both will obviously look phenomenal on a Z. Of course, 20's will limit your tire choices, be more expensive, and be heavier. IMO 19's are sufficient on the Z. Still have great looks, good handling, and plenty of wheel options. I'd do 19s

19's are cool, but 20's fit the wheel well better(expecially w/ springs). I would have went 20's with mine if they had them.

My opinion: 20's depending on the type of rims. Show us some choices you have.

The offset of axis se7ens are +35, with volks I was going for a +24 (i think). Se7en 3 piece was only listed in a 19, not sure what the offset was.

So what do you think volk in a 19", axis in a 19 or 20, or forged evolutions in a 20"....I'll try and post the pics

volk makes racing rims, thats why they dont make 20" rims.

the 2 dont go together for many reasons. just so you are aware of that; performance and ride will suffer from 20" rims.

I don't think it'll need lowering with 20's.

You can't go wrong either way, though GT-7's are a lot less tasteful. If you care what people think, which most people do whether they admit it or not, go with something a little less rice ugly than the Volk's.
