@HB, the BMWs with mixed wheels use a taller sidewall in the front so the overall OD is the same. My best guess is that they do this for less sidewall flex in the rear and more in the front for a balance of handling and ride compliance.
While the Corvette engineers have said they started using mixed sizes for aesthetics, I believe the Germans are seeing benefits on their Nurburgring testing times.
