If you have tires of different width, better to put the skinnier tire at the back. The tire that is more likely to get caught in road imperfections (the skinnier one) if put in the back is safer.
Riders on tight budgets, will try out a new tire one at a time. Consider yourself lucky if you can replace both tires on a whim. like I already have long, big cracks on my tires (tires have made around 5000 miles) and have no money for replacement so I have limited my outdoor rides to slow recovery rides only. My real training only happens in the stationary bike for now.
