Are there different tire sizes for front and rear?
Same with my brothers BMW. 245/35-20 on the front and 275/30-20 on the rear. Staggered sizes are fairly common on “performance/sport” cars.

some people will put fattys in the back and similar to standard size in front but if your planning on increasing size all the way around you need to make sure you wont rub in the front which can be caused either by width or (circumference/height/length/whatev u call this part) they called it staggered set up.. the back tires are usually thicker..
