Winter tires tend to have more tread than a summer tire so if you didn't have any rubbing with those, I would expect that the PS2's should be ok - but with tires its very hard to know for sure until you actually try it. I'd install them and give them a good hard drive somewhere local - and even that is no guarantee but its about all you do to know for sure.

All advantages! The extra track and reduced stagger (from 40mm to 30mm) should improve handling by improving corner turn in and reducing mid-corner understeer. The rear should remain well planted. It won't be a huge change, but it is certainly a change in the right direction.
As Jay mentioned, getting a little bit stickier performance tire will also help.
I would expect this to be a setup that will drive well and give you confidence in the car's handling.
