Default Will this wheel set up work

I posted earlier as I want to fit some prodrive GC07s to my car. I think I have found some at a good price, but they are non-staggered. It will be front and rear 7.5x17 +48.

If I stagger the tires with 235 rear, 215 front, is the handling going to be really squirlley ? I do not track the car or drive it near the limit but I do like it look good.

I have read a lot of threads on here on the subject and know that the general feeling is stick with staggered wheels, but I am interested in hearing from folks that have done what I am thinking or similar and know what teh driving experience is like.

thxs in advance.

I personally would go 8" + (9" or more preferably)in the rear.... if you only care about looks you will be fine though

Thanks Mar48, around where I live there are so many state patrol cars that it will seldom see north of 70mph, and there are not too many winding roads either.

Ideally I would go staggered wheels, will keep looking for a while and then maybe give into the 7.5" all round.
