Default Can I put coni in front if bilsteins are in back

Hi. I had bilsteins installed in the rear of my trans am. I need to order front shocks. Can I get coni for the front. Is having different brand shocks in the same car a bad idea?

I've mixed Koni's and Bilsteins. It worked pretty well with the older valving rear Bilsteins used to have. The Konis have faster rebound dampening (unless set to full soft) and you will be able to notice the difference - especially since the current spec Bilsteins have even less rebound dampening (I'm told).
