Re: wider tires in front?? (gribbsEG8)
what are you doing with the car?
for the street it wont matter. for autocross alot of guys use it to get more rotation.... where they are competiting in a stock class that restrictions suspension modifications.

Assuming that all four tires are the same and all else being equal, the 195's footprint in the rear will be longer and narrower than the 205's footprint in the front. Assumptions about if/how this will change handling depends on the car, FWD vs. RWD, and the suspension settings.
