wheel fitment?

ok I'm getting ready to buy some new rims, and the ones I really like are the Maya MRS Anthracite. I would like to put 19x9.5 in front and a 19x10.5 in the rear. Anyone have wheels with similar sizes? I spoke to a few tire people, and got mixed opinions mainly in the front. They said it would affect the steering a lot, other people told me it wouldn't make a difference.

here's a link to the rims I liked:

sorry i also forgot to ask how would 20x10 in front and 20x12 in the rear fit...I really did ask around at wheel shops around my house and got mixed reviews, so I'm asking for honest help here..

Lots of fitment issues:
bolt pattern
stud size
back spacing
Go to billetspecialties.com for a guide on measuring wheel size.

12" wide wheels could be a problem. I have 11" wide wheels on the rear and even with 6.5" backspace they stick out a bit from the side of the truck.

well the bolt pattern and stud size are no problem. I guess my main concern is for the front on turning... so that nothing rubs between those 2 sizes I said before

I would not go wider than 9.5" wide in the front due to turning clearance.
