I would go with the taller of the 2 on the rear axle being rear wheel drive, not sure you should use 4wd with odd size

The 245's should indeed be taller ... if the same make and model, however I don't think the sizing takes into account tread depth.

for the mot the tyres have to be the same size on the same axle, regardless of them being the same measused height.
