nice wheels! like the solstice too. yes i do plan on swapping out the wheels to some 18's. but im going to buy the gf210's first. the car has a low stock height! would the tpms be installed on 18's and function correctly? i read a thread that said they wouldnt work on aftermarket wheels...

You can always check the car in person. Most aftermarket springs are some sort of color versus the stock which are black.

Those look like replica Z06 wheels (in 17" of course). There are a ton available..but I've never seen that replica available in an appropriate offset or bolt pattern for the Z.

hmmmmm...
