You are wrong in saying that statement.
Unless it's like that from factory or you have it engineer approved and plated it's not allowed.
At least not in Queensland. I can't speak for the other states, as I am unfamiliar with their laws.

If you said I was a Volkswagen man, you'd be right.

Ok, what if you have the same size rims but different profiles giving you different over all diameter of tyre?
I have 14 " rims with 235/60 on the back and 195/65 on the front, never been challenged in the years I've had it.

Different tyre sizes are allowed. There's a percentage difference you are legally allowed. I can't remember what it is.

I'm not saying that it's ever enforced or that the cops even really care. They don't where I am.
Hell I've got 14s on the front and 15s on the back of my Baja.
I'm just saying if they wanted to they could pick on you for it.

Did you see both sides ? Probably one of those little spares they use for flats. More than likely. :P
