You'll have to fit one and see if there any clearance problems-esp when at full lock. The ET won't be vastly different but check that it isn't marginal in the first place. I assume the PCD is the same?

Make sure, the wheels don't protrude outside of the wheel arch or they will look silly. Insurance will depend on the company-some don't like it, others don't care.

tbh, it's not a great 'chance' and won't yield any non aesthetic benefits.

I don't know very much about changing your alloys but I do have a mate whose insurance company refused to pay out after he totalled his car, as he had swapped his wheels out (he had a Mondeo ST220 but I shouldn't think it makes much difference what the car is).

It might be worth asking this question in the legal section here too.
