Guess I'll put the slightly larger tires in the back.
They'll just be rolling along there.

According to Tire Size Calculator - tire & wheel plus sizing the new ones are over 8 % larger (which is a lot).

You could use them on the front (it's a FWD car right ?) to bring down the engine revs at any speed, if you think the engine/tranny can take it.
The odometer and speedo will also read low by the same amount.
Worth a try I'd say.
