Default Random tire question
Does it make any difference to use 2 sets (1 front, 1 rear) of different brand tires?

No. A lot of people run drag radials from one brand in the rear and tires from another manufacturer in the front. Depending on wear ratings, you might have to replace one set more often.

Just make sure you have the same type/size on the front left as the front right, and similarly the rear right and rear left.
you'll do fine.
