Wondering whether I should keep the same ratios or perhaps go to 35 (or 40 if they fit?) all around?
Any thoughts?

I am driving a 2012 335is with the 19" 313 wheels and same tire sizes as you.
I'll be using either an 18x8" or 18x8.5" winter wheel. If I get the 18x8", I'll be using 225/40-18 all around for a square setup, and if I get the 18x8.5", I'll be using 235/40-18 all around for a square setup.
I also recommend buying a full size winter wheel and spare snow tire (if your budget allows), because if you ever crack a wheel or damage a tire in the middle of the winter, finding replacements can be very difficult and expensive. Most tire manufacturers have limited production runs of winter tires, and don't keep making them during the winter months.
