Good luck with STU.
Me too and for directional tires I flip them on the wheel and move them to the other side of the car to even out the wear.

I talked with Phil at Phil's Tire Service and got 2 new Toyo R888 - he too did not like the idea of mismatched tires in terms of heat cycles and diameters on the car either.
