205/50R15 Up front , 195/50/R50 in back?
Just picked up a set of 15" rota slipstreams , The front tires are 205/50/15 Nitto Neo Gens, The rear are 195/50/r15 Nitto Nt450. There going on my 96 EX. I have used to have 205's the whole way around, I dont wanna change the tires because there brand new, Anyone running this set-up? If so is it a okay set-up? Any reason they would have chose the 195's on the back? Thanks guys

The 195/50s are shorter/narrower/probably cheaper than the 205s. One of those answers the questions as to why they were on there and whether or not it's a "setup".
You'll be fine. Either size is technically too short for a 96 EX so your speedo will be off. But not by anything major. Since the factory speedos are notoriously inaccurate anyway, you're not giving up much. The 195/50 might look kinda dumb, however.
