My car pictured above with 19" Alufelgen SF-71s is not lowered and I think the stance is just about perfect.
I also agree with some others that if ultimate performance is your goal smaller wheels and tires are a benefit, but so is the type of wheel. A forged wheel is generally going to be lighter than cast wheels. For a daily driver though I think 19" wheels are fine and in my opinion look better on the 1 than 18" wheels do.
