Don't know about the legality, but it will put a strain on you Viscous Coupling, not the strongest component to start with.

tyres must be paired on an axle eg 205'sfront 235's back
as long as you dont mix sizes on a axle its legal
but not sure what it'll do to ya visc coupleing's or tranny box

As long as the VCU isn't seized, it wont wind the transmission up, but it will mean the VCU is constantly working hard, so may hasten its early demise.
