Default Different Tire sizes on NA Miata?

Hello All,

I am looking at some gently used 15x8 RPF1s with 2 different tire sizes. 2x 205/50R15s and 2x 195/50R15s. Coming off a 5th Gen Civic. And replacing my 185/60R14 Daisies.

I want to eventually run all 205s, would I be ok to run the tires as is with the 195s up front until replacement or should I take them off and attempt to resell the tires (all >90% wear remaining)?
  • 205/50 15 23.08" diameter, 72.51" circumference
  • 195/50 15 22.68" diameter, 71.25" circumference
  • 185/60 14 22.74" diameter, 71.44" circumference (original daisies)
Or maybe Rat Fink is the look I go for!? Or reverse it and do the Carolina Squat.

Does anyone run different size (not widths)?

Can you do it? Sure. Won't break anything. Car might not feel exactly right or handle perfect but you can drive it around just fine.
