asgor is infamous around these parts
Got it: mixing tires isn’t very wise – it may work in some circumstances but the potential issues are such that doing so can easily negate the cost/ hassle benefits.

Thank to the feedback from The 6 I think I’ll either change all tires at once or just get two new rear P-Zeros and then swap all four once the fronts are toast.

My opinion: go to all Sumis - they are at least quieter. Then sell the two fronts here or on eBay...

Have to agree about Pzero noise, but agree with the OP about not wasting the front tires.
