Should the front end height be set differently if the rear tires are bigger?

I set the front end height to what was in the FSM, but I have 28" rear and 26.5" front tires.  Did I do wrong?

No.   If you are happy with the stock riding height and the car is aligned properly it should be fine.

Raising the rear height of the car through larger tires or differrent springs or air shocks (  )  will reduce your Castor slightly, if not re aligned.

And at high speed I prefer nose down for handling, had one once set per the factory manual, found that a lot of air gets under it , much better slightly nose down

Even the "O.E. restored" cars I see today are usually nosed down an little bit in front. 

It's one of those things that people rarely ever restore back to 100% stock condition.  Like the factory's orange-peeled semigloss paint finishes.

Hey.... I lower the nose and orange peeled my paint !

You would not believe how much more stable my car got with taller tires in the rear.  That nose lifting thing is no joke.  Once you get passed 120 you can start to feel it and with the rear up a bit, none of that.

Thanks.
