transaxle will be fine. Speedo will be slightly off. Use a tire calculator to see the difference

I have to wonder if different aspect ratios would confuse the ABS module, particularly if they are on the same end of the axle. They'll be spinning at different enough speeds and angles which would likely be a safety issue. 

Now, how that would affect the life of the transaxle is another question. I can't think anything but it would shorten the life of the transaxle.
