I can't imagine any Volks wheels being sold without the manufacturer's stickers on them.

Dont even bohter looking for a sticker on the face, jus tlook on the inner front lip of the rim and it will say forged, and monoblock whic is actually stamped into the rim...if you hvae this they are real volks. As far as fitment a 10.5+22 will fit the Z with rolling the fender...the picture you posted looks how my volks fit befoe I lowered the car...Moto, i'm in socal...if you'd like bring the rims down to my house and I can tell you for sure if theyre real or not, and what the exact size and offset they are.

I cannot believe that this has not been stated yet! 
The wheel will naturally camber inward once you set the car on the ground. Especially when you lower the car with lowering springs, the top of the wheel will come in and overall add more camber.
You will be fine!

I have to also concur. I was in the wheel and tire business for a number of years. The wheels are hardly past the fender with the suspension at full droop. Once the tires are on and the car is the ground they will fit perfect.

when you put the car on the ground, the camber will go negetive and bring it in. From the pictures you posted they look the way they should. Put the tires on, put it on the ground and enjoy.
EDIT: tell your tire monkey to stop offering opinions when he doesnt understand the basic geometry of suspension.

Your wheel has mad positive camber in the air.

If they'd be flush when jacked, you would be having SERIOUS problems once car sits. It's perfectly logical for these size of wheels to stick on on the Z when jacked.

it's a little off topic but i saw some le-37ts that were the same size and fit perfect as well... but he had 9.5 +12 at the front, only thing is that he had the front wheels turned to the left... anyone have a pic of 9.5 +12 at the front with the wheels full facing straight?
