Yah, that might be a problem. That being said, I see 4WD trucks driving around with different size tires on. For example, they will have one tire with absolutely no tread on it (causing it it to spin faster) and on the other side they will have a brand new tire with tread on it, so in theory, even if they are the same size tires, one is spinning faster (or slower) than the other because of tread wear. Now, long term, this will affect the differential and turning and all that and also, the people who are doing this basically look like they don't give a crap because it's an old jeep or whatever. But yah, when the truck is in 4WD there might be issues.
