My experience with select boxes is that you're very limited in terms
of what kind of CSS you can apply to them. There's probably a CSS
property to control that -- and probably no browser supports it on the
select/option elements. In failing that, I'd think if you could break
the value up manually, you cold just provide two options with the same
value and each with half the text -- not ideal, but probably the best
you'll get.
