"I'm still undecided."

I'll reserve judgment until I see them both in person. I think they're pretty awful in pictures, though.

If you don't like the sport rims you could likely get pretty decent money for them, especially if you sell them early on. Also the tire sizes are sufficient in size to transplant them onto aftermarket wheels.
Precisely what I would do.

To the haters I'm sorry to say...the Sports rims are the only way to go!!! Saw the new Z Saturday @ GT Spec on L.I. I'm really falling for it...especially in Yellow!!!!

^^ in the pics, both rims look ugly.....the non-sport looks cheap and the sport ones look like the ends of crow-bars...beer bottle openers....lol

I'll have to wait and check out a Z in person
