Hi guys, when I bought my car, previous owner had recently installed a brand new set of Nitto's 555NT on the rear and Yokohama YK580 on the Front, both in stock sizes these are about 8/32 thread depth, 85% life still on them.

Just recently a friend of mine offered me a set of Michelin PS2 in 305/30/19 for pretty cheap, these are take offs front his Porsche and are in the same condition as my tires 80-85% thread, since the Yokohama fronts are garbage, thought about switching my rear tires to the front and getting my friends Michelin's on the rear.

I'm lowered on Tein's S-tech (1"drop), and running 20mm spacers around. I know that I wont have a problem fitting the rears, but wasn't so sure about the Fronts, is any of you running this setup? and do you have any Rubbing issues in the front?

I know most are going to say Not to mix tires, but for the price I'm getting the PS2's, there's no way I can say No, and obviously YK580's are all season tires, no comparison to the Nitto or PS2.
