19 inch wheels?
i was told by my local shop that there is no way 19 inch wheels will work on my z without spacers. should i bleive that or can i just use a specific offset to get it to work.
before i get reamed by you guys for not going with 17's or 18's the reason i want 19's so bad is that the particular wheel i want only comes in a 19.
thanks

19's should fit with a special offset.
The only problem I see with this setup would be that you couldn't lower the vehicle. Since you can't do that, 19's will raise the car up about 2" and will give it that oh so pleasant 4x4 look.
Do you have a link or pic of your fav 19's?

No offense intended on this. IMO, the front looks ok, but the rear is way too high. The thing really needs to be lowered. The tires are also way too skinny. They almost look like big black runner bands. I've read that if you increase the wheel size more than 2" over stock (doesn't matter what car), then the ride quality really suffers. Is your ride pretty harsh? Other than that, the car looks good.

. Well probably better to listen to this guy anyway.
