Bumpsteer GT3 Wheels

Would fitting 04 'GT3 wheels with offset 40mm/63mm to 02 C2 Coupe lead to bumpsteer? Currently I am using 18" Carrera 5-spoke with offset of 50mm/65mm. I raises this issue with my local shop today and the mechanic says that there won't be any bumpsteer with the GT3 wheels. Is he right or is he just trying to sell me those wheels? Any comments is appreciated.

I have my local shop installed the 04 GT3 Wheels yesterday and the shop agreed that I can test the wheels out for one week and if there is any problem, I can return the wheels. Meantime, I still keep my Carerra 5-spoke. Since I do not want to spend any money on new tires (235/295) yet, I reuse the tires on the Carrera 5-spoke which is PZero Corsa 225/285. I went for a casual drive after the installation and at this stage, there seems to be no problem with the wheels: the tires are not touching the fenders from lock to lock. I will go for a hard drive this weekend to see whether there is any bumpsteer.

The shop does not have any access to a bumpsteer measuring device. What does a bumpsteer feel like?
