Nothing out of the norm, have the rims already, just haven't bought the tires yet - tires will be 305/30's and 255/35's. Car won't be tracked at all.

19x9.5 +20 Front
19x11 +18 Rear

I get the camber in you mentioned about on lowered vehicles, just seems on the first two pics there isn't much of the tilt associated with camber and the tire is pretty flush with the fender.

If you haven't bought the tires yet, who's black car? Just a base you found? Base vs sport with no wheels is no different. Calipers aren't going to change the look.

Looks like negative camber to me. a few degrees is hard to see in a pic. Since that cars lowered over an inch easy! It's going to be -2.0+ easy.

You'll be fine. I have the same wheel sizes and offsets, lowered on swifts. No poke.

That's the key. I was talking stock height.
