M45 19" rim questions

I was just lucky enough to pick up a set of 07 M45 19" rims for $200 w/o tires. They are really clean and were just what i was looking for to replace my 20's which have been nothing but trouble. I have two questions about these rims

First, they have TPMS on them. Can I buy an aftermarket receiver/computer and sync them up somehow?

Second I am looking for a tire suggestion. They are 8.5" with a 50mm offset.

I have a body kit and illuminas on stock SE springs but was thinking of getting a mild drop If i can get away without rubbing even fully loaded. I will prob end up getting spacers for the rear. I have a lot of decisions to make with this change it seems, and dont feel strongly about a stretch either.

I have not played with the tire calculator yet.

Any words of wisdom are appreciated

those wheels are super high offset. id suggest 15-20mm spacers front and 20-25mm spacers rear. for tires, go with 235/40/19

Get some lowering springs first and then go from there.
As far as tires, go with 235/40/19.

Wow! What a price you got for those rims. Post pics of the condition. I have always wanted those wheels on my car, but I am now content with my 2010 Maxima 19s.

The best tires on those rims would be a 255/40/19. That is what I am running on my wifeys 2008 Infiniti M35 Sports (see my signature below). And I would run that same size if I had those same wheels, but I am running 245/40/19 on my current 7thgen rims. But you drive but a 5thgen, so don't know if 255/40/19 would rub or not. I don't see why you need spacers, to be honest.
