not to sure but I was warned about doing a staggered fitment on my awd, since the wheels need to be the same size all around if not in time its gonna cause havoc on ur tranny this what ive been told so I stuck with the same size all around, what u can do is get diff offset to make them look staggered, for 19 the closet measurements are 225/40/19

i think 245/35/19 will work all the way around
use this site to help figure it out [http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp]

As long as the diameter of the wheel+tire stays same as current both front and rear, you are fine.
I think you want 225/40/19 on front and 255/40/19 on back.

I know that with a non staggered setup, Lexus recommends 245/40/19 all around on the GS350 AWD.
So if your suspension is stock, or lowered but with stiffer springs, then you should peg the front to 245/40/19 in accordance with Lexus specs, and then figure out the rear to closely match the total diameter.

your recommendation of 225/40 and 255/40 would give me:
90mm in the front side wall and
112mm in the back side wall
Or am i wrong about something here?

The rims ate pretty close in width so sure you can the rear will be slightly stretched more than the front but not much at all I have a 225/30 on my 9 inch fronts and will have the same on my 9.5 front when it comes in. Using thd same tire will keep the overall diameter from front to back perfect
