I voted for the 18"ers before looking at the pictures. Those Sportec wheels are by far the best looking. Any compromise in performance with a 19" wheels?

I am guessing sportec has one standard wheel then they use custom spacers for fitment on narrow or widebody.
Raza has a pic of sportec's with a wide lip, that dont look like the ones in the above pic
either get sportec with the lip (if there is such a thing) or go with the sport technics, wheelexperts and wheelenhancement has them for around 3400 for 19's
They are all specific to application. Spacers are readily available however in various mm's.

Thanks Guys I ended up ordering my wheels from Rival Motorsports Scott took care of me. I have made several Sportec Orders with Rival, Scott has been top notch with quick delivery. Anyway I chose to go with the Mono 10 Anthracite 8.5F and 11R. My sportec Lip is at the paint shop I am exceited to get everything installed.

Rival MS Ph: 315 299 7126 They are the N/A Authorized Distibutor

Where did you get your wheels? Do they still make the mono 10s with the larger lip?

^^not trying to call anyone out, but those wheels are not authentic Sportec. The real ones don't have lips like that.

The Sportec ones look hot! Is the brushed finish difficult to maintain?

I did not choose the Sportechnic wheels for a few reasons. I do not really like the bigger lip design on their Mono 10 knock offs. I have a bunch of Sportec parts on my car why go with knock off wheels. Last but not least the discount on the sportechnic knockoffs is not that great. There is a ton of high res pics on the Sportec.ch website to give you a better idea of what they should look like.

The ball polished Mono 10's looks sweet but I am not a shiny wheel type of guy.
