Rims with lip will always make it look smaller.

I Don't Think You Have To Worry About A 19" Wheel Looking Too Small. It Would Definitely Give Your Car A More Aggresive Appearance By Defining The Body Of The Car, Making It Look Wider. A Flush Wheel Will Definitely Look Bigger,but In My Opinion, Stick With The Lip.
By The Way, Which Wheels Have You Narrowed It Down To?
