Does anybody have opinions on both. Which ones are the best?

Best is a hard way to look at it.  Both do the same job and are both good quality.  Aesthetics matter more at this point.

Vickers pinches my hand way more than 10-8 on a regular G19, and the 10-8 fits in my magwell on the fancy g19 (Vickers doesn't).  
So it's an easy choice for me.  I also don't like how the Vickers sticks out sooo far on both sides...but in a combat gun that is probably good (for CCW not so much).

Absolutely useless waste of money.  

Buy an extra mag with the money you would have blown on extra-tactical base pads....

I like metal base pads to add some weight.

I have the Vickers plates on my carry magazines. Never tried the 10-8 ones but they look like they provide less griping surface.

Well, for me it helps me quickly know what mags are 9mm and what mags are 40s&w, since I have about 20 of each they get clittered sometimes and it quickly recognizable with ones are 9 with tan baspads. I have the vickers base pads that came with my 3 vickers glocks, so I started using tan baspads for all my 9mm mags. Works good and doesn't cost to much to me.
