    Mixed tyre sizes front & rear..?

    I'm having my 172 mk2 wheels refurbed and also need 2x new tyres on the front. I want to put 205/45-16s on but will still have standard 195/45-16s on the back. Will this be OK/legal? I understand my speedo will read 1.5% too low (been through all the tyre calculators on the net) but want...

    Bulbs...

    I see by looking through the Galleries that many Mk2 172 owners have replaced their bulbs with "Philips Silver Vision and Blue Vision bulbs"... are these still Xenon ones? If not, why change them, and what improvements do they give. Also how much/where from?! Cheers - Andy
