Looks good to me w/o a drop. I don't plan to drop mine, but different wheels is a possibility.

No drop for me. Maybe sometime in the future though.

I bought them thru my nissan dealer ....he had them on a black z on the show room floor and i really wanted them so he said give me $3995 (his cost) and i'll let ya have em.....they came with the Michelin Pilot Tires too!!!! The dealership had contacted Kinesis and had these made for a Z......regularly these rims are about $4700 without the tires......Pilots are really expensive too.....so i estimated about $5900 if the dealership didnt give me a HUGE BREAK!!!! The tires I have are 245 up front and 285 in rear Pilot SX.....( I got lucky with this deal i think) tire pressure sensors fit nicely too!!!

I think it depends on the wheel and tire. There is a few in this thread that look damn good with 0 drop.

But I prefer the te37 with a small drop gives it the extra POW! when you look at it.

Kenesis wheels look very nice. Did you change the breaks?

By looking at the pics, I'm pretty set on not dropping the car. I'll be adding a bodykit down the line as well, so the car will sit lower. We have alot of speed bumps in my area.

Speaking of speed bumps is it better to get 18's if you frequent speed bumps ? My subdivision has 4 that I have to go over when I leave home.

Also what are the price ranges that we're talking about for 19's ?
Iforged ?

Choose the wheels that you like and slow down for the speed bumps ...
