Mismatching Front and Rear tires

In my case, my rear stock Yokohama Advan Sport 285/35/19 are almost brand new. But the front 2 go bald. I am thinking to replace them with slightly used(7/32) stock

Default Mismatching Front and Rear tires

In my case, my rear stock Yokohama Advan Sport 285/35/19 are almost brand new. But the front 2 go bald. I am thinking to replace them with slightly used(7/32) stock Bridgestone Potenza Re050A(245/40/19). They are little cheaper then get new Advans.

I've heard mismatching front and rear tires is bad practice in general. But in my case, they are same type of tires. Both are rated ZR. Is there any disadvantage or harm of this setup(both in wet and dry condition)? Anyone had any experience?
