Question Volk 19's which set look, perform best & will not rub?

Thinking of changing to Volk 19's. Which size set would look best with minimal performance issues & have no fender rubbing on stock suspension? Tire size suggestions are also welcome.

Choice 1 = 19 x 8.5 front & 19 x 9 rear

Choice 2 = 19 x 9 front & 19 x 10 rear

Choice 3 = Any other suggestions?

Here's a pic of my car currently w/ Volk GTC 18's & Nitto 555 (selling next month).

Thanks!!!

Well the question is what are u lookn for, complete looks? Cause ur not gonna get much performance with the heavy 19s... So seeing as how ur going just looks, the 9 and 10s will look better, and shouldnt have any rubbn problems.
How much are u gonna be selln ur 18s for now? Wanna hook a fellow DB 5AT up ?
I wanna do the greddy front lip, and sideskirts like yours, your lip looks diff though, i like how yours looked, is it any diff from the ones greddy are currently selln? or is it just the angel that makes it look diff. looks good
Also i like the nismo wing, iam curious though, did u have to drill to install it?

Sure, I'll let you know when I'm ready to sell. Yes, the lip is Greddy...it's probably the picture....the Nismo wing is a replica by Techno as I used to have an OEM spoiler which would have left the 2 holes showing as a real Nismo wing does not cover them.

So how is it held on? that sticky glue stuff? or did you use the 2 holes. How do Nismo wings go on do you have to drill or are they the sticky stuff.

I dont think gold on blue looks good
Now black, or as close as possible, that looks good

I know that they used bolts & double sided tape. However, not sure where the bolts or how many.
