You think you'll see a sidewall height difference by eye on a stock tire set up? A .25mm difference?

If the tires are stock, this question won't be answered by a picture from the side of the car.
no you wont see a hieght diff and if there was it would be so minimal no one would be able to tell. only way to see is by width or for a more technical person.
