This would result in the overall diameter of the wheel being a little over a quarter inch bigger.

My biggest concern is how they will look - I like the way the OEM runflats look on the Style 313 wheels - will the 10mm wider tires cause them to look too big and bulgy?

Thanks!
Hmmmmm... I looked up Tire Rack and found the following:



Please consider that because you are running 8x19F/9x19R, you should consider the cost of the tire and 225F/265R would be perfect fitment because they are the closest in wheel diameter. Check out this link, too, because it shows min/max wheel width each size tire can fit:

You will save bucks on 225, rather than 235.
