Thanks for the comments guys. Got some quality pics for you now couldn't wait to take it out for photos with the new wheels.
Shot with Nikon D700, 70-200mm f2.8 VR1 lens with polarizer filter and editing done in Aperture and Pixelmator. Pictures really do not show how badass these wheels look compared to the Niche's I had for a while, but in person... WOW!! Looks crazy, fitment is a lot better than with the Niche's although they really weren't bad. Had I kept them I was planning on getting them done Gloss black and adding spacers however a friend was selling his CV3's for a steal of a price so I jumped on em. Same wheels we've had on the Camaro for a while, gotta get these 2 in a photoshoot together, just a hassle loading up all the gear to take shots of your own cars lol. The next few things I've got to do now are roll up on some wood blocks and cut out some square shaped spaces on the bottom of my side skirts so I can jack it up easier, it runs all the way down the side basically over your "jack area" whatever its called. These skirts extend way under the car and there's hardly room to get a jack positioned correctly to get the car up without putting stress on the skirts and almost cracking them. The steps we had to take to swap the wheels were #1 roll up on 2x4's #2 use spare tire jack positioned ever so perfectly to raise it up just enough & not put too much stress on the skirts #3 place floor jack that we can finally position correctly to do final adjustment. The front tires on these wheels are shot, gotta get new ones like TODAY, so I gotta get to the skirt modification, and I have my redline oil and purolator filter for my second oil change (since my ownership), as well as K&N drop ins cause my stock filters are lookin pretty dirty. The Vossen's are 20x9 and 20x10.5 gotta hunt for the offsets but they're almost perfect fitment. need to change my profile pic and sig

OK looking at the offset options for the wheels, I'm pretty sure they're the
20x9 +20 Front 20x10.5 +15 Rear The current tires in the front are 245/30/20's and I need advice on the new tire size as these ones are trashed and stretched as they were on an even lower Z before mine and needed to be stretched to fit, however I'm a tad bit higher and am thinking 255/35/20's might be a better option to really flush the wheels up, not to mention no one will install 245's on a 9" wheel, I'm starting to think 255's could flush it up I'm just worried about the sidewalls lookin all fat, I like the look of the tires now... What do I do? not worried about uneven tire wear, I'd just really like to hear that the 255's will look good and close the tiny tiny gap I've still got

Thanks for the comments.
I recently cut some of the underside of my side skirts so I can actually use my jack points!! Can't speak for the original sunline fitment and design, but these AeroJacket skirts extend waaaaay too far under your car and need to be cut in order to get a jack in the proper location..... so that's exactly what I did. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370902502.858429.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370902530.473983.jpg I cut out 3 areas along each side so now I have places for a jack plus jack stand points as well. Sanded em down after I made the cuts and everything's good now and I'm able to jack the car up without putting the jack in an awkward location and putting stress on the side skirts.

I still have to drive on 2x4's to get a jack underneath, its still too low to get one under. But now I can actually position the jack in a safe place rather than placing it so far under the car it's barely touching the jack point and also have the ability to place jack stands again.
