Change of tyre width

***Edit, wrong section, please can a mod move it to the correct section?***

In my usual perusal around the interwebs i find wheels that suit my car, but always have issues with the tyres, or offsets, or widths.

I have noted that my car comes standard with 245/40/18 square setup and on of the options i looked at was using the 19's off a F30, but they come with 225/40/19 front and 255/35/19, while the circumference is bigger, its within limits (1.5% bigger).

My question is other than the obvious offset issue, which can be corrected with spacers.... can the narrower tyre in front affect handling negatively, considering the car had originally 245 up front? I know that other models in the E60 range have had 225/50/17 without the MSport setup.

Advice? opinions please?
