I have 18's which fill the wheelwells REAL nice as long as you run a 40 series tire (click below for pics):

Since u can afford it, definately go with 19's with at LEAST a 35 series tire (FYI - generally speaking there is less selection of 19's with our 5x120.65 bolt pattern, but you can also use the 5x120 bolt pattern)

Hey Pu. I see you around and often check out the pics of your car. I think you should get some newer pics with a better camera/digital camera. The pics you have now do not do any justice to your ride.

Visit my web sites below to check out the 18s on my ride. I run the 35 series tire. I really like the 18s, but now that I look at it I really want to get 19s. If you have the cash, go with the 19s definately!!!

Search the member name CrkHedMat, he used to have a 99 Z28 with 19s
EDIT: 94WhiteZ28, I definetly think you should get some clear corners for your car. I have a white Firebird with clear corners, and clears on white totally smooth out the appearance. I wish I had some pics to send you though

Stick with 18s!!
I was at the track this past Thursday and there were two Fbodys there, one was a LT1 Ram Air TA and the other was a V6 '98+ Camaro. Both of them had 19 or 20 inch rims and I thought they both looked like crap. Way too much rim for the car...I was not impressed at all.
But that's my opinion and everyone's got one, right?
Do what you want to do...not what everyone else thinks looks good.
