two problems: i've got 19" 8.5 front and 9.5 back MRR GT1 black finish w/ polish lip

1) there is rubbing of rear tires against wheel well when it encounters "hilly" bumps and when passengers are present in the back (car is lowered 1" all around)

2) lip of rims protrude past the protection of tires so slightest miscalculation you will damage the rims

my recommendation is nothing bigger than 8.5 all around and plan on lowering car 1" or so...if not you'll have noticable gap in the wheel well. anything lower make sure wheels clears the fender. good luck
