no damage ... handling will be a bit off.
185 is the width btw ...
put the odd wheel on the back and you should be ok ..... If the tyre profile is the same
ie 185/60/14
165/60/14

The profile is the height of the sidewall in terms of percentage of the width, so with a 165 tyre you want a bigger profile, otherwise the radius will be smaller.

also if u get stopped by cops u'll get done for having different size wheels on same axle.. u can have completely different wheels on front from back but if there on same axle they have to match.. so just be careful or get them changed as soon as
