Several reasons:1. Despite your disbelief, I don't like the styling of the Z wheels. :D No offense taken. On top of that, I drive an Infiniti, so "Z" centercaps might look a little "poseur" on an I30.2. Z wheels are 16", which make for a more harsh ride on my I30, given the drop and springs/struts. I drive a LOT over bad roads. I had 16" Mille Miglia rims that looked really good on there (IMO), but they were way harsh for a sedan. I went with 15" rims for comfort.3. The rims I have are very light, and I really like the design. If they limit me to only being able to use Q caliper, I can imagine worse fates. I have not even mounted them, so I don't want to get rid of them and go looking for other rims.
