different size wheels

so i was wondering my front tires have alot of camber wear and i was gonna get some used tires until my rear ones are worn down too since they are at like 50% tread. but my friend says he has some 195/55/16's for me and the stock rims are 185/55/16's. so i was wondering will it make that much of a difference if i put the 195's in the rear and 185's in the front?

Camber wear, is your car lowered significantly from stock? If not, then what you should be doing is going to get an alignment done to get it within spec.

If it was me, I would put the 195s up front versus in the rear, afterall it is a FF configuration car and the extra meat up front will induce a little bit more rear end movement (if pushed). The other way will induce understeer which is something one shouldn't be looking for.
