Sorry I keep bothering you but just a noob at this stuff.
Do I also need to purchase the TPMS for the new rims?
So if I wanted to save money and not bother with a new rim set and just get the tires, I am assuming that I can just order the tires and replace them when winter comes using the same TPMS and everything? Then the only thing is that I will be replacing the tires on the same rim back and forth but can use same TPMS and all that? That way I would save the cost of new rims and TPMS?
I am not really big on aftermarket rims to be honest and quite like the ones that are on the car (OEM 19" Multi Spoke). So the only hassle would be that I would be paying for removing and installing tires and balancing them every change of season?

also with 235 stretched on OEM back wheels you have less rim protection and if you are not a careful driver you can easily curb them.
I'd just buy a cheap set like these in a non staggered size and run 225-235 tires on it. I also dont run any tpms (I dont really care to read the tire pressures, I always check them before I track anyways...and I am cheap lol)...its fine there is just a light, so if you want to save some money you dont need to get tpms.
