Default Staggered wheels questions

I'm looking into getting some new wheels next month. They are 17 x 8.5 front and 18 x 9.5 in the rear. How will this affect my handling going from the stock 16 x 8's? What are the pros and cons of going with a staggered setup?

you handling will improve!! I had 17x9.5 and 18x10.5 and made a huge good improvement! Your going to have 1" less sidewall on the front and 2" sidewall on the rear improving your handling.
