Yes, in fact, they are all the same size now. 175/55R15's which is the stock rear size.

Finally, After 3 years... bigger wheels/tires on the front...

Well, not quite 3 years, but close :) I finally got the wheels I got from SATO put on the car (waited until it needed new tires all around). With the biggtr tires on the front, it makes a dramatic improvement in how well the Smart handles.

Definitely worth it if you can find extra wheels for yours. See More

(If I have Bass & Treble set to +3 on each, I cannot turn the volume higher than a level of 18 before it cuts out). If I switch back to the radio or CD though, I get full volume. If I turn Bass and Treble down to +0, I can get up…See More
