Cheap rear rims 18's ss

Know of any good places online that sell a rim for 18" DR's? Corvett 40mm I see will work but I have not see any on Ebay. Maybe I am not looking right? Also how does the Tire pressure System work with 18's?? Also I read that the rear tire has to be the same height of the front. What size 18" DR's are recommend for the stock P-zero's on the front? My Dad wants the widest rears he can get on his car. I looked at the recommend tire size thread but I am not going to lie, it's over meThank you, this is new to me!

Either one should work, but if course the lower the offset the better.
I have them on 18x11 wheels with 48mm offset and the tires still have about 1/2" (12.7 mm) clearance on the inside. The 18x10.5 wheels with 58mm offset wheel will sit 4mm (.157") farther in (http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp) so they should only have 8.7mm (.342" just over 1/3" of clearance which is cutting it close but still ok).
Obviously the lower the offset, the more clearance you will have on the inside.

You DO NOT want the rims mentioned above. The offset that you're looking for is 40 mm. Anything else and you'll need a spacer. 10.5 is to wide. You want the C6, Z06 Replica FRONTS. 18 x 9.5

As for the TPMS. Simple. It won't work unless you buy new sensors then set them up for the car. It doesn't much matter if you are just using these for the track. The light will come on after enough driving but that's all.

He wants to leave the rims on from the spring till fall. So 40 mm I will have to look for then. Spacer would be no good from what I read! As for the TPMS they have to be for that rim correct?
