as long as the axels are matched it doesnt mater if front and rear are differnt, the only thing you might find with differnt sized tires is your speedo might be abit out

thank you thought I had better asked

dont have a clue when it come to tyres and wheels

Tried to drive a car (well a Vanden Plas Princess 100 anyway) with a cross ply on one side and a radial on the other on the front after I got a puncture many moons ago.

 

I didn't drive it more than about 100 yards like that, it was lethal!!

 

If you are using radials, just make sure they are the same size across each axle, you'll be fine

Personally I don't think it will make any diference the with the sizes you mention, there wouldn't be much difference in the profile.

 

It wouldn't be any different to driving with one tyre slightly low on air which I see many people doing as they have no idea in there power steered plastic cars.

 

My Toyota rolls on 17's with different sizes (profile) front and rear and the spare is a space saver which is a different size again. When its fitted the car drives fine.
