Evening all

right i have a whole set of AD08s left over from my civic
225/45/16
I plan on using them on the back of the S2000. How ever if i want tyres for the front i will need something like 205/45/16 or 205/50/16.
How ever the 205/50/16s are £150 almost but the 205/55/16s are less than £110.
Now i have calculated it and if i went for the 55s the front tyres would be 22mm bigger in diameter than the back.
Now it has ride high adjustability.
Would it ruin the balance of the car is my question I guess?

Cheers
Chris
 
it shouldnt no they wil probably increase the comfort very slightly as you have more tyre between the road and wheel. you may find you will have to adjust your suspension away from the wheel giving that you have just stuck another 22mm between the arch
