Default mixing tire sizes

up front i have 225-50-15 bfg drag rads and out back i have 205-50-15's out back rolling on 15x7 Kosei K1's..

what are the dangers and negatives of rolling around with wider taller tires up front..... there are obvious reasons of why not to.. but any technical reasons to why not to?

it is just temporary for a few weeks and will soon go back to stock sizing up front.

thnx in advance fellaz

more oversteer given equal tire compounds. Other than that, nothing I can think of.
