Hello, has anyone swapped out the stock 17” wheels for a 19 front and 16 rear ? And if so, any suggestions on where we can buy and get the specifications here in US. Cheers all….loving this site.

I haven't seen any off the shelf wheels for that. The 17" pairing (but different widths) is in common with tens of thousands of Super Cubs and its variants, though tire selection in the USA is a bit limited.

If you're in the USA and interested in pursuing it, I would recommend reaching out to Buchanan's Spoke & Rim. https://www.buchananspokes.com/
They make great parts, carry name brands, and if they'd be willing to build the wheels for you, they're a very reputable wheel building shop.

You might be able to reuse the OEM hubs and have custom spokes made to fit the rims you'd like to use. Consider that it's likely going to be expensive and there are many potential downsides to changing the bike's geometry, faulting the ABS, making the vehicle speed and odometer reading inaccurate, etc. and you'll have to make sure there's clearance for whatever rims and tires you'd like to run.
