Default WILL THIS WORK??!!!

i came across a set of 19" wheels that are staggered. The fronts are 19x8.5 with a 38 offset and a the back are 19x9.5 with a 38 offset. would i be able to put this set up on a a4/a6 quattro?? i asked the seller and he/she said it would work but ive heard staggered is not good for quattros, any opinions??

All four wheels are supposed the have the same load and be balanced under ideal conditions. You'll be introducing a continuos imbalance with staggered wheels on a quattro.

it can be done you would probably have to run 35s on the rear and 40s on the front but its just not a good idea, i wouldnt want to chance ******* up my entire drivetrain
