Am I foolish

I just bought some tires on ebay. 2 old but never used BFG comp TA's 225 50 15VR. I plan to put them on the back of my car. On the front of the car I have 2 Brand new cooper cobra 215 60 15's My plan is to get 2 more 225 50's but can i drive the car like it is or should i wait untill i get enough money to get more tires???

I drove my car like that for a while, lol. It was a LONG time ago, but doesn't matter too much. Assuming that you own a 944 the speedo reading is taken from the tranny, therefore rear wheels.

actually if you have an early 944 the speedo is taking from the front (i want to say) left tire.
