This is a popular topic. The offset on the Z's is at a 0 offset. You will need ADAPTERS to another pattern. The Z is 4x113.4mm but with an adapter you can get the more common 4x100mm rims. Keep looking through th eposts, there is some really good info about this in here. Also check out my post regarding the adapters. You can find them on eBay for a fraction of what some of the specialty sites sell them for. Saerch in autos, parts, wheels and use teh keyword "adapter/s".

The bolt pattern is 4 x 4.5" but it's the offset that gets you.

send an email to Keith @ adaptamerica@aol.com. Let him know that you need the 1.3" thick 4 x 113.5 to 4 x 100mm adapters for your Z. He quoted me $150 w/shipping ($135 + $15 ship) He uses billet aircraft aluminum to make them.
