0.59" = 14.986mm (15mm approx),

This is what Performance Wheels have on their books for all 1970-78 zeds wheel offsets,

All the ZX wheels are 14 X 6 + 12, except for the turbos which are 15 X 6 +12. I think they look a little "too tucked in" for my tastes.

I agree. I have them on mine at the moment. They sit in heaps compared to my 0 offset jellybeans. Just doesn't look right.

Can't help for handling either, narrowing the track by an inch.

so what is the bolt pattern then??

4 x 4.5" or 4 X 114.3mm.

You may want to look at Centerline wheels (www.centerlinewheels.com). There are several models available for zed as "direct-bolt-up" applications. They are available (depending on the style you select) from 15" to 17" and 7" or 8" widths, but they do say that 8" may not fit unless you have an air dam application in front and fender flares on the rear. They recommend "Zero" offset but can provide a custom offset as you wish.

Depanding on the style you select they are available in 15" to 17" diameters and 7" to 8" widths. However thay do note that 8" widths may have clearance problems unles the Z had a front air dam and rear fender flares.

When you go to the web page, scroll to the bottom of the vehicle list and the last item is Z-Car (datsun)

I have on my 1970 a set of Sport Max 15x8 0 offset. No clearance issues at all with 195/50s and Ebach lowering springs.

Sorry this is the best photo I have at the moment
