Tire Rotation

W212 service suggests tire rotation every 5000 miles. Not having owned a car with a staggered 245/265 set of tires, how do you rotate the tires, just side-to-side?

correct, you can't rotate staggered wheels/tires. you could unmount the tires and flip them and remount them if you wanted.

Only if they're directional. Otherwise just swap from side to side.
