im not sure if it will mess up the system, but my shop helped call lexus and they said if it is with in 1" overall diameter then it is fine....and my setup is 235/35/19 and 275/30/19, i believe this is the closest setup we can have.
here is the link of calculator:

just try around to see which set up is the closest you can get, but if you are looking for 19" then go for my set up.

oh! one more thing. if it is something wrong, the car will tell you "CHECK 4WD" because last time i was using 17" for the front and 19" for the rear because of some reason. so i don't think there is problem for staggered.

It's the same reason you don't want to drive a car with posi/lsd with two different-sized wheels left and right- it'll ruin the differential in relatively short order.
On an AWD car there's a differential between the front/rear axles too and different sized front/rear wheel combos will ruin it.
Keep the overall wheel/tire total diameter the same and stagger all you want though, risk of harm becomes nearly non-existant.
