Focals sound real nice.. my buddy has them in his Mitsubishi.

I always hear from people "What? You didn't get a sunroof?"

The (vinyl?) top is cool.. I like the rear a lot though it looks pro. The matching blue baby seat is the best though haha

Shiny blue Zs lead the way!

Looking great! My vote for the next mod is on an exhaust, it really brings the car to life and adds what is missing in stock form imho.

Exhaust is a great idea. I was thinking about FI or motor dyne.

Would love to get wheels but my z is a dd and the ride is really comfortable scared that the bigger wheels will ruin that

depends on what kind of tires you get as well. going up to 19s are not gonna make the ride that much more ruff. I daily drive mine on 19s.

I would think that as long as the overall weight of the wheel/tire combo remains the same as stock or lighter; your ride quality should remain pretty similar. It might be slightly harsher due to a smaller sidewall, but it shouldn't be a big difference.
