Don't mix and match different brands and/or models of tires. As some of the members have indicated, tires have certain characteristics that are unique and peculiar to themselves alone. I agree, that you should either replace just the tires that are worn with the same brand and model, or opt for 4 new tires that are the same. I would caution you to steer clear of the Goodyear Eagle F1's. Despite their good performance, they produce a
ride that is harsh enough to knock your dental work out. Furthermore, they were a bastard to road force balance . In fact, on a couple of occasions 2 out of the 4 tires where so far out of "spec" that they would not balance within acceptable figures and consequently had to be replaced . Unfortunately, Goodyear only agreed to warranty 1 of them .
