I would have said no to 19's but I am now convinced by SOME of these pics that it is the combo of very nice wheels and the stance that make it possible. I would do it now, but only with very good wheels. Cheap ones look too big, and for sure you have to lower it down or it seems to RAISE the car.

One things for sure, those who spent the cash like Nine Ball get it right!

And yes that black Z is the nicest pictured Z I have ever seen too.

Nothing is wrong with 19's. I just got some CCW 505a 19's (wont be on car for while still building) and they look fing sick! All depends on stance, tire and rim combo!!!! VSGLS1 has frickin 20's on the back of his car and it looks absolutely insane in person.
