2014 Mercedes E350 4Matic
Rims question please help "stagger" and Offset 35

I have a 2014 Mercedes E350 "4MATIC " original rims are 18" but trying to upgrade to 19"x8.5 front and rear 19"x9.5 with a 35 mm offset meaning "stagger wheels " but I went to the tire shop and they told me that staggered wheels are not recommended for my vehicle due to the 4Matic engine.

So question number one. Can my 2014 4Matic Mercedes take staggered wheels ?

Is 19"x8.5 with a 35mm offset better all the way around.

Is the 35mm offset a good offset on 19" rims I like the rims to be flush with the fender and not out the fender please help thank you in advance

stagger is good for rear wheel drive,when you need fat tires in the rear to grab the track fast.Stagger is not good for Le Mans style driving with twisty curves.
