I know people always say fit the same tyre to all four wheels, but what difference does it actually make, providing you fit the same tyre to the same axle?

The different brands of tires (tyres) have different levels of grip and different slip angles. This will be a problem when you least need a problem, in an emergency maneuver when you have to steer or brake very hard or when you run through standing water at highway speeds.
