Sorry, but this is simply not 100% true whatsoever. I have over 2 years and 30K miles with not a single problem. Sure, a mismatched f/r diameter setup may result in an issue, but as long as the F/R tires have same overall tire diameter or within 1-2% of each other there should not be an issue. The LS AWD system does have tolerance. There is an AWD mega thread in the IS forum with plenty of folks doing AWD staggered setups..no issues. My LS600hL is just fine after all this time along with other members. One of them has well over 50K on his AWD setup on his LS460, no issues whatsoever...now that's a fact!

My CV4s are for sale, PM me if interested, And yes, I have AWD on my LS600hL..no issues whatsover with multiple years of running staggered. My tires are 255/30/22 and 305/25/22 which have the same exact overall diameter...that's the key with AWD and staggered. There is room for variance with this so rest easy because there are folks like me who have done this with no problem. Sydtoosic is another LS member who has ridiculous miles on his 460 running staggered and his car is maintained at Lexus. No problems, you can PM him for confirmation as well.
