Bad idea to replace PS2 rears with PSS or A/S tires?
Had MO spec Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 all around, rears are now gone. Fronts look new.
With PS3 and Pilot Super Sports now available, I don't want to invest in older tech PS2 again. PSS are getting fantastic reviews.
Can I mix the PS2 fronts with new PSS in the rear without adverse effects? Was also considering a compromise high performance A/S tire, I imagine that's even a greater difference from PS2 to PSS.

I thought there could be an imbalance having different tire attributes front and rear. Maybe one end is more or less grippy, breaks traction differently, etc
Not like people don't get a flat and throw on another brand altogether and putter along. Hopefully not on these cars...
