We know the St205 is full time AWD, would having two different sets of tires harm the transmission in any way? It came originally with 215 50 16 but those tires are not available here so I took 205 50 16, so obviously they are slightly narrower and a little lower, but enough to realise, will the viscous center diff handle this? or will this cause a something to wear out??

mmmhmmmmmmmmm.

so, the smaller tyres are on the rear???

lol that would be so much fun on a skidpan.

even better yet a pair of space saver donuts in the rear:D

its not safe on the road to have bigger tyres infront though, you can fishtail and 180
