Staggerd set up?

I have a 02 S55 AMG and currently its got the original AMG's on it, 18x8.5F and 18x9.5R. I'm looking at getting 20's for it but the wheels I found dont offer a staggered set up. They are 20x8.5 all around with a offset of 38. My question is, is it ok to put a non-staggered set up on this car?

Heres a pic of the wheel...

Thanks

Also the Rims are made by United Wheel Corporation and the name of the wheel is the UW10.
