Where the original wheels staggered?

The staggered setup gives better handling for aggressive driving and taking curves in an exciting way.... If the car originally came with all wheels the same, there may be little to be gained by using a staggered setup, except for how you want it to look. The inability to rotate means, of course, you will buy more rear tires.

There may be some suspension differences between the w209s with and without original staggered setups.
