mixing tire brands
Does anyone see any issue with mixing tire brands? For example, my rear tires are more worn than my front tires. I am looking at replacing my rear tires in the spring, and may go with Michelin Pilot Sports instead of Bridgestones (car currently has all Bridgestone tires).
Thoughts? |

You may experience grip differences from front to rear depending on the performance rating of the tire and variance between manufacturers for a given rating.
I run ad08r up front and pss in back to reduce understeer. |

It’s going to be a gamble no matter what. Maybe buy a set of 4 and sell the two good ones

its not a huge deal. however, if you're one of those people that pretends to drive at 10/10ths in the canyons on the weekends, just get the same tire.
