Hi all my spider msport wheels are really looking shabby , I'd love to get m3 wheels- I see them on eBay in 18 and 19, assuming I should get the 18s as my current set up is the staggered as well?

19's look way better. Thats what I went for. 19x9 on the front with 235 35 tyres, and 19x10 on the rear with 265 30 tyres.

Very nice

This is the style I was referring to in 18 or 19 I love these wheels , I think they are the best factory wheel tied with Audi competition package wheels

Not sure which M3 wheels you are talking about for E9x, because there are multiple wheels styles for the model. Whatever you go with, get OEM wheels. DO NOT get replica wheels by any mean. I would recommend you look at bmwstylewheels.com to see what wheel style you like the best for E9x generation, and go from there.

Honestly, if you have a relatively stock 328i or 335i, you don't need more than what the OEM M-Sport wheel specs offer. 18x8 and 18x8.5. I had my set of 197s painted in a custom anthracite paint code that my buddy at the local BMW dealer's bodyshop painted for me. Refinishing + paint did wonders for the wheels and gave them a whole new look.

Those could be heavy and bend/crack easily. 19" doesn't leave a whole lot of tire to absorb impacts. I got my OEM forged ones for a pittance more than that eBay seller is asking. I'd recommend you shop around the F80 wheels for sale section on this forum until you find a good deal on some OE wheels.

I'm very biased because this is my own setup but IMO the best setup for a non-M E90 is if you can get two sets of 219Ms and keep the four fronts as a square set (I think it's easy enough to sell the four rears). That's what I run on my car and I absolutely love it. 19s are way too big on this car IMO. I run 235/40/18 which barely changes my gearing/speedo and fills in the wheel arches very nicely.

Don't buy from ebay like the listing you linked. Those are garbage replica wheels. Do what @Vivek. said to do and peruse the classifieds in the F80, F30, E90 sub-forums. The only time you should be wheels from ebay is if they are actually used; OEM BMW or genuine wheels from a [B]good/reputable[/B ]manufacturer.

Those eBay wheels are reps and will likely bend or crack easily but are cheap enough that you can replace without breaking the bank. What kind of Customer Service do you think you'll receive if you have an issue? I would have a little patience and find an OEM option.
