I would suggest you get a winter tire/wheel package in 18s or even better 17s. It isnt worth it to get 19s in winter and have to pay for mounting them over and over again. Besides you want a smaller size wheel for better handling in the snow.

You should use search. It's very easy to find what you are looking for.

Base 350z 17's fit perfectly and can be found for ~$300.

Tirerack sells dunlop graspics DS-2s for $100 each.

add $100 for mounting and balacing for all 4.

19" snows were around $1300 last time i looked + mounting.

So if you go this way, you'll save $500 and wont mess up the 19's.
