In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help.

The 2015 comes with different sized tires on the V8. As stated :

19-inch premium alloy wheels with P245/40R19 front and P275/35R19 rear tires

So, do you just forgo Tire rotation altogether? Doesn't this make the tires wear out faster?
 
Thanks Much !

I noticed in the link you provided that the '2 tire rotation' scheme was for 'non directional tires'. So to eliminate tire rotation altogether, you'd have different size front and rear directional tires.:D

I have staggered tires on one of my cars and I swapped them from side to side. I run non-directional tires however they can be swapped easily. If directional tires then they have to be turned around on the wheels when swapped.

And to answer your second question - yes, they wear out faster.

I noticed one tire manufacturer (think it was Kumho) had a different warranty period with installations on staggered set-ups.
 
Most manufacturers have less warranty for staggered tire sets.
