I totally agree with you, although it does get tricky if you have a big brake setup.

Every decent kit (save the 15" brembos) will fit under most 18s.


Most of the serious track guys have no issue with 18s and the brakes they run (ap, 14" brembo, wildwood, etc)




OP, car looks great. The Sl's are a great look on the z in 18s

honestly, 18" is lighter but 19" looks way better!!!!! plus thats only little different on the lightness between the 18" an 19". I bought a ssr type f 18" but deciding to go for 19"

I think 19" is perfect on the Z but this Volk wheel in 18 and as someone mentioned "Castro's" red Z on 18's looks pretty damn good as well!

18 vs 19s
 
I liked my base 18s on my black Z . Look sleek. Now I just recently bought 19s 255/295s Hankooks with Avant Garde M310s. As much as I liked my 18s. Quieter ride, etc. The 19s setup I have is off the Freakin chart. Now I understand going to a 247/275 setup on 18s makes them exellent. But the base 225/245 was missing something in my opinion. Great wheels on a 245/275 certainly would not warrant a change to 19s. But the base did. Ill post pics tonite but for now my avatar has my new setup and I am happy as can possibly be.
