I suspect that there are other Aspire swappers out there with similar collections of 12 inch wheels, myself included. Matter of fact I was stupid enough 4 years ago to scavenge every last Goodyear snow tire (145/80-12) in e. Ontario when it was announced that they were going to be discontinued.
Get rid of the stuff. When Festy owners no longer want them for sure nobody else does. Anyone out there need or want a set of Festy alloys?
Pick 2 complete sets of the best tires and give away (or sell) the rest.
Personally, I'm going to 15s.
88L - 'Twistiva' - 'The Fusion of Man and Machine'
88LX - 'Laztiza' - Future Resurrection Project
91L - 'Mistiva' - My Daughter's DD
93L - 'Vextiva' - Airport Car

Well one drawback to buying into newer-fangled tires is their price tag. You can entirely shoe a Festy with 12s or 13s for the price of one low-profile 15.
Utility and boat trailers are still available in 12 inch. I've never checked into this but if the rims are compatible perhaps a trailer manufacturer would be interested in cleaning up and re-selling the rims.
^I got 14s for the same price as 12s online. I guess if you have a local place you might come out better, but for me it was about $40 each + ship either way. Just made sense to me.
Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.
