Tires Matching (Front/Rear)

[vipola]

Hi, I am looking different brand of tires for my boxster 99. (17 inch)

I am Hesitating between Eagle F1 and Michelin Pilote Sport.

Both have good review from both, Eagle F1 are a little bit cheaper, seems to be better in the Rain, they have a nice look, but seems to be less durable. I am also familiar to Michelin Pilote Sport because that's what I use on my motorcycle (Actually it's Michelin Pilote Power that replaced the Pilote Sport)

So I was wondering if It could be good to put some EagleF1 on the front for the control in the rain, and to put some Michelin Pilote Sport at the Rear so they won't run out too fast. I don't care paying for a tire, but I would like it to least more than a few week/month.

Is missmaching front/rear tires like that is a really bad idea?

What do you think about those tires (Pilote Sport vs EagleF1)? Should I go all EagleF1 or all Michelin Pilote Sport? I am not someone who is racing in the rain anyway (Well I don't race the car at all, but I want to have a good control of it), but I may use the car as a everyday ride even in the rain. Is there a big difference between them? does Michelin Pilote sport really last longer than Eagle F1?

Thanks
