Unusual Snow tire problem/question:

Unusual Snow tire problem/question:
I just picked up a set of snow tires, used and mounted on steelies, for my wife's Fit ('08 sport); they are directional Firestones snow tires on steel 14" wheels. Tires are in perfect, like-new shape.
Problem is, the two left side tires are on 14x5 wheels, and the two right side tires are on 14x5.5 wheels. That's what you get on Craigslist.
If I mount them like this, is it a huge problem? I weighed them and there's about 1 lb. difference. Should I have two of them switched so there are 5's in the back and 5.5's in the front? Or does it not matter just slap them on?
Or, should I find a pair of 5.5's to make it even?
Thanks!
