Default Wheel Deliima, big time....

Guys help me out, i know its all a matter of your taste but i just put a set of 19" LC818's on my 350 like 6 weeks ago and I love them, Thing is, i just found a set of wheels that i always told myself that if i found a brand new pair id by them. Volk Gunmetal LE37's . They are 19x8.5's the only thing that would hold me back is that they arent staggared. What do you guys think?
