Can anyone help with which new wheels would be the closest swap for 1275LS ones? Not sure how to work out the whole ET/offset thing. Also approx what would the LS wheels be worth?

Did you want to keep the standard wheels with hubcaps? The rover steel 12's are the same as far as I know. The rover factory 12" minilite style alloy wheels would be closest 'other' wheel to the factory steel wheels.

12x5 superlites would be the eastest to obtain (available through most tyre franchises).
