18x10.5 and 18x9.5 are nicely sized wheels. Those tire sizes are very small given the wheel widths, but they are probably necessary given the offsets. Check out the stretched tire e-thugs thread in this same forum.

18 inch wheels will look smaller than 19 inch because, well, they are.

I would go with the 19s, the big lip desing on those sp1 makes the wheels look smaller than they are

yes. the lip already makes the wheel look smaller and then the design of the sp1 wheels, it has very small spokes, even in 19s. i think you can pull it off if you were slammed on the stock body. but it will look tiny with lips and body kits.

I PREFER the look of 18s over 19s, regardless of cost. The offsets are outrageous, and by that I mean kickass buy em, mount em, and post pics.

those tire sizes are stupid small for a 10.5 if you hit a bump wrong you will prob fugg up your wheel. I know its probably needed cause of the offsets but i would go with around +10 offset just to get some rubber on there, I think they look terrible with that much stretch. This is JMO of course.
