What is the purpose for having back tires bigger then front and is it good for regular driving or is it just for racing.

You can fit bigger tires in the back, in the front there is not enough room, plus bigger tires make it harder to steer and require better brakes. Bigger tires are for traction, having bigger tires in the rear does not necessarily improve handling.

also when your gunning it, they dont break traction as easy so Mr. Policeman cant be a dick and pull you over for reckless driving

I am doing it for mainly looks, and partially for traction.
some people know im going DOWN to 15's from 17's, and most people think it will be gay, but i dont care, i love it on mitch's wifes car

as far as daily driving, having bigger tires in the back wont affect you as long as you arent a roaddemon. Most normal driving wont be spirited enough to break tires loose. so as long as you dont have 100% bald tires, it shouldnt matter what size they are.

unless you consider the cost of tires in your daily driving, then obviously wider tires are gonna cost you a bit more.
