207s are good tyres, but a little old now ...

The 70 section front will make the handling odd, but it is physically 'safe' to fit a 70 section, yes

p.s. Any pics of you GF!!?!?!

Only if you told them it is running with a differnet size tyre Chris, and technically still not legal if you have a prang as the accident inspectors have a little book of everything regarding what type approval a vehicle has.
