You can mix the sizes aslong as there the same size on each axle.

cheers buddy will it effect handling with 205 on the back and 195 on the front?

What mine is currently running thanks to only needing to replace two. No difference tbh, not even any noticeable added under steer like you might imagine. Just make sure it is the wider on the rear

I know wider at the rear looks better, but from a technical point of view you should but the wider ones at the front as that is where the weight, load and stress is. The same reason why rear wheel drives (especially mid engined) has wider at the rear...
