No inner clearance issues bc the Z is quite cavernous underneath

Fronts, people have run 9.5 +22 and 265 without issue so u should be ok

Fender rolling is easy, heat gun and baseball bat to do it cheap or find a local shop. Rears are rolled from the factory
Yes, I would love to lower the car an inch or two. But I have an APR splitter and live in Michigan. I already scrape at most Driveways, so I don't think I'll be able to lower the car if I plan to keep the splitter.

You bought a sports car, you aren't going to find any miracle solutions that do whatever you want and come easily or cheaply. This is just the reality of modifying your car.

you wanna look good? you need to lower your car, buy supporting mods, and wheels to fill out the wheel wells

you wanna be functional? be ugly, live with it

To meet your needs, i'd suggest full air suspension, which is pretty common these days and will cost you a few grand, or an air-cup suspension system, which just adds about 2 inches of liftability to your static setup. There's a variety of options out there, Platinum, Umbrella, i think Fortune Auto is cheaper and pretty good
