Wheel diameter between front and rear
is there a percentage that you have to be within when comparing the wheel diamter between the front and the rear? Just so I dont throw off the ABS and traction control but I guess it depends on certain cars

I've heard 3%, and to be picky I think that's 3% on tire revs/mile which probably differs a little from 3% on tire diameter.
I imagine it has to be at least that much in order to work properly with cars where two of the tires are at full tread depth and the other two are well into the wear bars.

You could use the fatter ones in back, narrower in front, ABS remains unaffected.
It's easy enough to calculate, if you ask I'll show how I do it. imp
