Default New to BMW and the forum. Help!

Good morning Bimmer family. I bought a 2009 E60 535xi two days ago, and already i have a bunch of things i would like to do to it, but i habe a few question. First and foremost i want to change the rins and put (what i think are) the m6, 5 star double apoke rims. The ones i found are 19" (i think the stock rims are 17s) furst off will this devline the performance of the car. secondly based on the rims ONLY being $900 i think they maybe replicas. Is that a bad idea? I also want to put a cold air intake on it (its only $100) is that worth doing? My friend has one on his 335i and you can hear his turbo much better. Thanks in advacnced for the help...

the awd cars have different wheel offsets than the rear drive cars. so the m6 wont work.
