Default Wheels: 8.5s All arounds?

I just got my F not too long ago, so I'm still learning all things F. I want to get some new wheels and I tried searching the forum for the answer, but could not find anything specific to my question. I found a good deal on a set of TE37. They're 19x8.5, I was wondering if it would be okay to run this all around. I know that the stock setup (which is what I have) is staggered.

Any suggestions, tips, or encouragement is appreciated.

Thanks.

I encourage you NOT to run 8.5 widths all around. You need more width for traction.

Thanks kauaian for the response.

Would you say 9.5" all around would be okay, or is staggered just the way to go?

19x9.5 +45 all around works well.
