Question staggered

On the 2012 Lexus IS350 staggered tires;

F - 225/40/18
R - 255/40/18

How does it work for tire rotation? if at all...

And, do I need to do some kind of tire reset on the dash panel?

Unless the tires are directional, you can swap from side to side but not front to rear. If directional, no rotation.

It doesn't, unless as stated your performance tires are non- directional which if they are the right tires for the application, they are NOT swappable.
​Taking that a step further, the Rear 8.5" won't clear the front calipers without spacers.

FWIW - Test fit while doing a brake job, as I was curious.
