Question 305/30 one side, 325/30 other... is this ok for <30 miles while waiting for tire..

had blowout... one tire came next day but other 3 delayed in transit..

is it ok to drive the GT3 (under 60, and calm) home and back to dealer till tires come in (less than 30 miles) or better to just leave car at dealer?

dealer has no loaners.. so i would just use it to get home. assumed the difference 26.3" versus 26.7" wouldn't affect the pumpkin much?

Yesh it should be no problem. Look at the tiny donuts most cars come with. As long as u keep below frwy speeds u'll be fine.
