Default wheel size

having just got the godspeed brembo kit fitted obviously i cannot fit my 16" wheels again to the fronts however because they have have new winter tyres on them fro last year what would be the consiquence of fitting 16" to the rear with 17"on the front?
i just know this is not gonna work somehow

People would laugh at you!

No, seriously it sounds like a bad idea, bear in mind its AWD, IMO odd sized wheels would really upset it..
