The manufacturer, retailer (Tire Rack) or you the driver can neither predict or explain the handling of your car if you mix brands. A great tire may be on a car that handles terrible or a crappy tire may work surprising well. These combos have not been evaluated or tested, so it's anyone's guess how well or safe the car will perform. Yrs ago grandpa bought any tire that was on sale and bought 1,2, 4 or whatever and didn't have a problem. But all tires were crappy then and he wasn't driving a performance sports car (not my gramps anyhow). Dad always bought recapped snows for the rear. That was common and worked fine.
