You can call JonB @ PartsRack(except on Mon.) Has lots of stock rim/tire setups. Tell him your a new Viper owner
or
http://www.x2builders.com/gallery.as...s%20For%20Sale
or
make a post on the VCA forum saying your looking for a Gen 2 18" setup. That's what I did when I wanted to buy my Gen 3 5 spokes. I had about 5 people contact me with a couple days.

Do yourself a favor and buy NEW tires.

I just make a post on the VCA site and see what kind of offers you get.
