Another bit of feedback, I have seen some racers run a 23 front and 25 rear. My son is an amateur racer and claims he has more stability in corners with this setup.
On a bike wear is wear. The reason to rotate car tires is to make a tire last longer by reducing the affect of uneven wear across the tread from a particular wheel. This is not an issue with bike tires. On a bike, there is no advantage in rotating the tires - it doesn't buy you anything.
