Default Staggered Wheel Issues?

I was wondering inf anyone has run a staggered fitment on their Audi? I was thinking about running 20" staggered wheels on my S5 Coupe but I wasn't sure if would mess up the quattro. I'm coming out of a Lexus RC 350 and had no issues w/the staggered fit but again it's not a true AWD.

There are a ton of threads on this in AW. But the basic advise is not to run a staggered setup since it puts undue strain on the differential. However, if your tires are within 3% difference from the highest to the lowest, according to Audi, you are within spec for tire size tolerance on a vehicle.
