Default What size wheel to run for square setup 18 or 19? Best tire availability

I'm thinking of running 18x10.5 or 19x10.5. Which size has best availability for race tires? Hoosier's, kumhos', slicks. I also may run a event that needs street tires (200tire wear). Seems like 19's are most available.

If you're talking about street tires, then I can't be sure but I would assume there would be more options in the 18" size. If you're talking about race tires then I KNow there are more options for 18". I don't think you'll find a single person here who does or would recommend a square 19" setup.
