Default 18's or 19's?

Hey guys, I'm looking at getting wheels really soon. I'm lowering the car after I get the wheels. Should I get 18's or 19's guys? is there gonna be a problem with the wheel well rubbing if I lower the car and get 19's?

The bigger the rim the slower you go.I would go with either,but no more than 19.Just my opinion.On my car I would go with 18's or 19's.Either one.

I think I'm going with 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the back with some sumitomo 235/35 in the front and 265/35 in the rear. Watcha think?

Alright brother, I just ordered them. 275/35-18's in the back and 245/40-18's in the front. Sumitomo ZR rated Tires with Ruff Racing 280 18's to go along with it. They are coming mounted and balanced with locking lug nuts and all hardware. Total came to $1798. Should be here in 2 weeks! Can't freakin wait!
