Cars that come from the factory with staggered whel diameters also have different tire diameters. If you keep the same or similar tire diameters, fronts will have taller sidewalls and will look beefier than the rears. I went staggered-diameters on my FD in order to run 275s in back (245/40-17, 275/35-18), but that car is 50/50 with 500+ hp and no traction or stability controls to be affected.
Anyway, on a 55/45 200hp 86, I wouldn't bother going 18/19. It won't look as hot as you might think...
