Hey,
i'm looking for some nice wheels for my Z. I've actually found some, but they don't fit. They have the Mustang 5x4.5" lug diameter...
I was thinking bout using these adapters...

Are these adapters any good so i can simply use them or should i better be carefull?

If you get the right ones, 5X5 I think, to 5X4.75 they should work. You just have to be careful, because they might sit outside the fender well.

@JackZ28
I'm thinking bout taking the adapter 1,25" thick, so its gonna be like a 30mm spacer and that schould work with 18x8" wheels.
@slickmetal
no thanks, that would be kinda small for my taste, coz i actually wanted some 19" wheels but now i will go for 18".

Candyman:
Yes 18" fit real nice with a low profile tire....I tried 19" but I had some cleareance problems when turning the front wheels.
As for the rims: please offer...

CM hub centric is wher the hubb supports the weight of the vehicle and the lugs just hold the tire on. lug centric is wher the lugs support the weight and hold the tire on , this is much weaker.
