i'd be careful with sevas rims', they have been known to fail and cause a lot of damage, serious injury may occur, one guy had his rim fail and caused the car to loose control, crossed 3 lanes of traffic back and forth, then able to get in control, imagine if you were in traffic, hit a car and maybe hurt someone. I suggest you search sevas rims failures too.

Dang I would have never imagined certain rims could be dangerous! Couldn't you sue the rim manufacturer in this case? A long time ago, I had heard that chrome wheels in general were more dangerous that regular alloy wheels when driving in wet conditions but I dunno if thats true.

false, chrome doesn't contact the road, the tires do. The manufacture is being investigated by the NTSB, no updates on that yet.

Well, according to the link you posted, the rims on the Z are R5's (still Sevas). As for what to get, buy mine...much better quality than any Sevas wheel.
