i've looked into this as well. nismo wheel was the only stock-legal wheel i could find. Scott@FontanaNissan can't get 'em right now, since they're on backorder. i've seen 'em go as cheap as 2k on ebay, though. and if you're local to matteson, il - there's a pick-up only, no-reserve auction that ends in a little over 2 days:
19" 370Z Genuine Nismo Forged alloy wheels:eBay Motors (item 270440985956 end time Aug-20-09 08:14:40 PDT)

and another with a buy-it-now of $2300:

at this point, you're probably better off buying a set of sport pkg wheels for half that price.

I just finished running my first ever autocross here is CO. I was able to improve 2 seconds per run so things were heading in the right direction. The car is more than I can handle at this point so I will be working on my driving skills.
People were very excited to see a 370Z at the event. I just wish I could have done it justice.
FYI, I ran the indexed AT-street tires class.
