1. You can put very knobby and wide tire which means more grip
2. You have more tire options than on 19"
3. Better for trail riding - 18" tire is fatter so you can also go with less pressure and is more resistant for pinching
4. 18" tire is more flexible and you can have more traction on a hard surface like rocks etc. with lower pressure
5. Main wheel weight is closer to the rotation center which means less power to rotate the wheel -> longer range than on 19" with similar tire.
