Default Quick Question about 18" Rims
I have a 1996 C4S with stock turbo-twist rims (I think they are solid not hollow).

One of the rear rims now has a crack, which creates a slow air leak.

As a replacement, I am thinking about buying the set of 2 rear rims on ebay, which are hollow...

Will it be OK to use these two hollow turbo-twists on the rear and my original (non-hollow) turbo twists on the front?

Thanks

Or, as an alternative, if anyone has a set of rear 18" rims to sell me, send me a PM...

No problem mixing hollow Technologies with the Turbo Looks.
