I changed my wheels to 19" many years ago. Went with the Gemballa rims (which can still be purchased from the supplier as gemball no longer provide). There was no noticeable ride deterioration but there was a noticeable handling impovement. I also changed the suspension to the sports suspension so the whole effect was quite impressive. I suggest you go for 225x35 front and 275x30 rears. I have tried 295 and 285 rears but I now have the Michellin Super sport at 275. Whether the tyres rub slightly on the gaurds seems to be more related to the tyre shape as the 295s barely rubbed but the 275 with rim protectors seem to rub when I hit a bump but nothing drastic. Overall I would suggest the change as it does improve overall look as well.
