I am currently running 225/60/16 all around. My rear tires need to be change pretty soon. I want to run a lower profile tire like 55's all around but i only plan to change my rear tires first. Will it look funny if i'm running a lower profile tire on the rear than in the front? will it be a noticable diffence? I guess i could just put the new tires on the front, but i would really prefer for the newer tires to be in the rear. if this is confusing here are some numbers to help out.

Current

F 225/60/16

Plan

F 225/60/16
R 225/55/16

I plan on changin my front tires to 55 series in about 1-2 months.

Well, your new rear will be smaller in diameter (and sidewall) than the front. You'd be running different size wheels for awhile => not recommended. Your sidewall will be almost .5 inch difference. Some will notice it and some will not. If it is just looks that you are worried about, who cares? In 1-2 months, it will be just a memory. I'd still do it sooner vs later because of the difference in size.
