Different Tyre at the front and rear
 
My tyre shop got me wrong tyres in September when I had two tyres flatted. Damages on the sidewall.

I didn't realize until I checked the tyre condition last week. Its now two MPSC2 tyre at the front, two MPSS tyre at the rear.

I run street driving most of time. Shall I get two MPSS tyres for the front or wait exsiting MPSC2 to be worn.

I'd get the matching set of MPSS for the front. The MPSC2 will have different characteristics especially in the rain and cold. I've never used non matching sets.

I agree with Alan.

I agree with the others, you have to have matching tires (especially with R compound and non R compound)

All the tires are too damned expensive!!

Take it from Marv, you should have never bought a GT3. Tires are too pricey. You need a benefactor

In all honesty, depending on how you drive the car, the PSS may wear first because how much the car will oversteer because of the lack of grip in the rear... I would just order 4 cup 2's and drift the crap out of it... :)

Thanks all for the advice. I will get a new set of MPSS tomorrow for the front.

You should get your tire shop to give you a price break since they were the ones who screwed up your order in the first place.

Showoff, but I liked it.
