Did you find the 19's a bit harsh for ride comfort?
Just put some new tyres on my 18"FD wheels.
As they are half an inch wider than stock, I've gone for FD's recommended 245/275 combination using vredestein ultrac vorti.
The previous 235/265 Mitchellin Pilots always looked a bit stretched, the vredestein fit perfectly and have a good rim protector too.
Boy do they look wide though now!
They appear to protrude from the body, but when you put a long straight edge across the rim protector they are perfectly flush to the top of the arch. Well almost, manufacting tolerance the off side is ever so slightly more inboard compared to the nearside front and back.
I desperately need to lower mine now, have the springs and roll bars.

I think the chance of anybody having a set of FD rims for sale are very slim. Only know of myself and BennyD with them on the forum, both running 18's.
