Here's a bar bet you can probably win against a roomful of Z owners -- which has the wider track, the Sport Pack with 1" wider tires, or the base? And the answer, since you're going to check this out, is that the "skinny" tires are actually further apart, by about 1/2 inch, both front and back.

I doubt there's any reason for it other than the way the Rays rims, Akebonos, and offsets happen to interact, but found it interesting nonetheless.
Sounds to me you're far reaching for reasons to justify not getting the Sport Package on your Z. As in, making sure you made the right decision. It doesn't matter to US as a community which way you decided to go, it's still a beautiful car in the end and we aren't going to judge against people no matter what trim they decided on. For a lot of us, we felt the Sport package was a killer deal (and in reality it is). Did I *need* the large brakes, spoiler, 19" wheels, LSD, etc? Heck no, I probably will never see the limits of my Z but knowing i've pushed the limits out that far, just suites me well.

For some of us, having the OPTION makes us most comfortable than being limited. I could way off base here, it just sounds like you're still talking yourself out of the idea that going with Sport could have been a better decision. You made the RIGHT decision no matter what level of trim you decided on, it's ***Z*** Haha..

That being said, welcome to the club!
