RE: 16" wheel on rear, 18" on front
I wouldn't think that there would be any adverse affect running a 18 & a 16. Any reason as to why? Just curious. The cost of the 16" and 18" are competitive.The 16" may have aslightly betterride over the 18" The 18" should handle better with the lower sidewall. Pros and cons.....
I currently run a 18" and a 18"
I'm waiting for my 21" front.

RE: 16" wheel on rear, 18" on front
I'm running a 21/16 and it rides and handles great. Just got a matching 18 for the rear because I just wanted a wider wheel in the back than the 16x3 and I also found that my front was discontinued and I'd better get a rear while I could if I ever wanted one.
