Folks, there are a lot of nice aftermarket rims, people put on their Z.
The ones on the pics I added seem to be pretty popular. This rim is known as a "Wolfrace" over here. Whats the name of the brand in the US? Are these rims still available?

ThankZ, Thor

I've always heard them called "slotted dish mags" even though they are
made of aluminum, not magnesium. They were manufactured by innum-
erable companies including Shelby, American Racing, Halibrand, and
many others. I don't think I would be stretching it to say that that is
probably the most popular style of mag wheel of all time. And looks
right at home on the widest variety of cars.

BTW Thor, our #06289 6/70 looked EXACTLY like your car when we
bought it new 40 years ago. #918 orange, bumper overrider bars, and
slotted dish. Eventually we installed genuine Minilite MAGNESIUM wheels,
and subsequently had the car painted candy apple red with gold trim.

Hey its Marc from the ZCCNE with his white Z. Those rims I think are still available from MSA. They also can come in different sizes, and some have push through center caps, some are screwed on.
