Pretty sure its 35ET all round and 235/40 front and 255/40 rear. If you are going down to 17's you could make it easy and pick up a set of the original 4.5 RL's as they still look damn good.

They come up on the PH classifieds relatively regularly, set on there now but not that close to you

Failing that you could speak to pxwheels who may have a set to sell as usually have stock.

But if that's £100 a tyre new then that's not a bad price. You'll pay £50 a wheel getting them refurbed.

What are your 19s, and how much do you want for them?
