Believe me, the worst streets of UAE don't compare to your avg Saudi road LOL. You won't face any abnormal issues with 19's as long as you get decent quite tires... you will be sacrificing comfort though.
19" wheels with aggressive offsets (regardless of fender clearance mods) will look awkward unless you drop the car significantly... do what I did, get conservative offsets.
I agree with Rashid's comment, if you are going to get 18" wheels I would go with flat faced wheels and concaved ones if possible... the OEM mesh weels are quite neat IMO and will save you unsprung weight (and $).
Tires prices are something to consider when deciding on the wheel's width, CSC's on 18x8 & 18x10 could cost up to $2k here in Saudi
oh yeah, how on earth did you manage to get 98k on the car in less than 3 years!!! mine is just as old, driven daily, with loads and loads of expensive road trip miles and I am still in the 50's
speaking of roadtrips I am driving to Dubai on the 23rd and i am staying for 2 weeks for training, we gotta meet up and do a photoshoot or something 
Best of luck!

^^^Hahahahahha, seriously bro the weather right now is the worst!! If u do the drive, tape is gonna b ur best friend, tape ur WHOLE car up unless u feel like goin for another paint job. Call me when ur down here will be great to see u again.
Emarati_K; I think youll b fine with the 19's (unless if u live in Mazyad or someplace like that then yea stick to the 18s) As for offsets good luck, take ur time picking the correct offsets, i got +48 on 19inches and no rubbing what so ever (very conservative offsets) I think ull be safe up to +40 offsets.
