100/90-19 is your stock tire size. If you want a tire that looks a little fatter on the weel, there are 110/90-19's and some with aggressive looking tread patterns like the Dunlop K81, which is actually intended to be a rear in the 4.10X19 size. It is a pinch to go on your narrow wheel, as it is intended for a 2.15-2.5 inch rim width, and yours should be a 1.85, but it will go.
The Dunlop F24G is expensive, but it's 4.29" wide. Not sure how wide you can get without rubbing. I think the caliper is the closest to contact, but I'm guessing, not looking.

Both of these tires are mounted on a Yammie 19x1.85 front wheel. I have used both on the rear and they will both also fit the front.
The left is a Maxis 27x7x19, the right is a Shinko 705 110/80x19

For the rear I used a 19 inch front yammie wheel with Omars conversion kit. Aside from the wheel and tire, everything you need is in the kit.
