Usually when getting different widths you go lower on the aspect ratio of the wider tyre so they end up about the same diameter.

For example on my Chally I had 295/50/15s on the rear and 245/60/15s on the front. They were around the same diameter. 26.61 inches on the rear and 26.57 on the front.

I have never done that before, but will see how it looks once on before deciding to change.

Well Mopars usually have saggy rear springs so taller tyres on the back help. ;)

Not too worried I think it will give it a better stance. We will see.
