Thanks for the quick responses! What a useful site!
Since my original post I've done a bit of homework. There appear to be several different styles of RRS wheels including 8Jx18, 8Jx19, 9J x19 and 9.5Jx20. (Source RRS workshop manual)
Assume the 8J variants will not provide a clearance issue. This leave the hub configuration, offset and maybe other things I'm unaware of to consider.
Having said that the wheels on e-bay appear to be the 9Jx19 variant.

Have a look at my gallery, 19x9 RRS sport alloys with 255/55x19 goodyear wranglers. 10k miles now since fitting, no problems. There isnt much clearence between the rim and the upright, but as they move up and down together, it isnt a problem.
