Yes, they will fit. That 5mm offset difference is insignificant.

Those are pretty heavy wheels, probably as heavy as the OEM ones. Unless they are incredibly cheap, you might want to consider others (depends on your budget and concerns about performance, etc.)

get 2 sets of rear wheels, a set of 15mm spacers for the front and 20mm spacers for the rear and your all set to have crap wheels on your car.

they will fit, but you should save your money to get some better wheels instead.

there are plenty of wheels out there and you concluded with these? remember, the wheels you mount on your ride will determine the "flow" you set for your ride. bottomline, it is your ride and you do what you think is nice; we are here strictly for assistance.

they will 'fit' but you shouldn't buy them, or ever put them on your Z.

don't ruin your new, pretty car with ugly, heavy ill-fitting rims.

just save your money until you can afford a decent set of rims and tires that fit. or just don't change them out at all.

Also, just reread this and even more problems:

a good rule of thumb when modding a car is:

- lower the car FIRST (i.e. before dropping money on rims)

I hope you will actually take this advice. please, for the sake of all of us, including the ridicule you will suffer to your face, and behind your back.

and think of how the car will feel when kids walk by and make fun of it when you aren't around. you want to know why cars sometimes mysteriously spin with no warning? they are suicidal because the owners put ugly ill fitting rims on them without even lowering the car first.

don't be that guy.
