Wheel advice for e91

Ok so I am looking to upgrade the wheels in my e91 from the stock 17s. I want to upgrade to 19s. I need some help, such as what will be the pros and cons to the switch. Will there be any rubbing ? Theres actually a ton of potholes where i live. Will acceleration worsen? I also love the look of wheels with spacers so will i run into any problems adding those ?

These are the rims Im wanting to buy :

Also what is the best tire size for the above wheels ?
ie: 225/45/17

Please Help, and all help appreciated

If you end up going with those wheels you'll need to roll the front fenders. While your at it roll the rear fenders and add a 12mm spacer. Id go with 235/35/19 tire. The quality of the wheels probably isn't very good at that price. There are better quality m6 reps available.
