that might be dangerous...different front/rear tires makes for a really tail happy car. i had stock tires on the front with 20k miles on them, and swapped the worn rears to continental DW. car felt like it wanted to veer into the median at highway speeds. swapped the fronts with matching tires, and car drove straight again
Just to clear things up. Running different front/rear tires of the same compound in relation to each other won't induce oversteer (nor is it bad) but, putting NEW tires ONLY on the rear will induce a slight oversteer. I think that's what you meant but, not quite how it got typed out lol

I have different front tires but, they were new. Therefor they went upfront
