Need help choosing rims (11 335 m-sport)

I need help decided what rims and where to start...

I just bought a 2011 335i M-sport... I am looking to upgrade to 19" rims and wider tires... I am thinking about going with black rims to look more sporty.

should i go 19" if i track my car? What sizes etc?

Thanks!

Most members will prefer 18" sizes for a larger tire selection, thicker sidewall, as well as lower cost.

Here's a 18x9.5 VMR V710 track package all around.

Fenders are stock right now. The car rubs only on big dips. Remember we are running 275/30/19 RE-11s which are very wide tires and the car is very low.
