Need help on staggered rims

Hey guys what are the pros and cons of having staggered rims? Please help me decide on whether to get staggered or non staggered rims.

Thank you in advance for any input.

Staggered provides you with an aggressive look and better handling. It all comes down to personal taste, however, staggered definitely will improve the way your car handles and performs.

No tire rotation with staggered. And what the King said. Mike

Thanks guys. I will go ahead and get them non-staggered that way it will be cheaper on the tires in the long run.

Frankly it instead comes down to whether Mercedes has engineered a staggered wheel solution for your car.

If it hasn't there's likely not a chance in heck you'll improve anything but perhaps the look. Guys that sell tires and wheels usually aren't engineers.
