Default Need advice, better wheels or bigger wheels?

Well, I need yalls advice on this one. I'm really wanting to get some new wheels, but I am limited by a budget of around $2500 for wheels and tires. I really like the look of this Zinik Carroza (1st pic) but it only comes in 18" and 20" and I dont want 20s, so 18s it is, however it only comes in 7.5" width. I also like (not as much however) these chrome Status RR-10s which do come in 19s which is kinda what I wanted and plus it will be a staggered package with 8.5" in the front and 9.5" in the rear. Now my question is do I go with the wheel I like better but sacrifice some size and the staggered look , or do I go with the better overall looking staggered package with the 19s? I really like the ZIniks though. Also, whats the best looking tire size on 18s?

Ive never heard of Zinik so I am not sure about their quality, but I think a 7.5" wheel is just too narrow all around on the GS. I would go with the Status wheels because you get the staggered setup, they are 19s although 20s would look better , and you can get them from D2 Autosport. Those are 3 big bonuses in my book over the Zinik wheels
