Whoa! DO NOT buy a +47 offset wheel. They will be tucked so far in your wheelwell it will look ridiculous. The stock wheels are +40. You would have to buy 20mm spacers to make them look good, and thats no good for the drivetrain.

Find a wheel with somewhere between +20-30 for the rear, and +15-25 for the fronts.

Ranger is right. +47 is way, way too high. So high, I wonder if it'll be hitting the suspension or some part of the wheel well.

The wheels you are interested in are Veilside copies. You can get real ones that fit the Z at www.veilside.com

Thanks for the info.. But Even if it is 45 not 47, would that still make a huge difference? Man I really like those rims and I really don't want to pay premium for real vailside....

Yeah 45 or 47, it's the same deal. You need something much lower, like in the 20s or 30s. Anything in the 40s isn't going to work.
