All 530's have RWD so staggered setup is fine. I don't understand why it would matter if you had 525, 530, or 550. Staggered looks great! With 245/35 all around, you won't rub in the rear, but you might in the front. Since you are running 245/35 in the front with HR sport springs, you are sorta pushing it. I think you'll get by though. IMO, I still think you should have gotten the staggered setup. Return them!!!
If it was me, I would have ran 245/25/20 in the front and 275/30/20. Rubbing might be an issue in the rear under full load, so just roll the fenders. With the springs, the tires will be slightly tucked on the fender. With sport suspension you might be an inch gap.

245/25 in the front is very thin and will cause you to bend that rim very easily if it isnt built for high force loads.

I just thought the true justification for fatter tires in the rear was for bigger engines that could use more rubber on the road. I went with it b/c like you said..staggered looks great!

20mm front/20mm rear
They fit perfect, no problems at all. You don't need hub centric rings or anything, just make sure you get the right size tires.
