Douglas:
From the experts in these matters, I have always heard NOT to mix tires on
the same axle.  The logic behind this is that one of them may break traction
before the other causing all manner of handling weirdness if not an accident.
 Sounds reasonable to me.


I have 1 Continental RS771 which was the OEM tire on one of my vans.  It has
always been a spare and you can have for the cost of shipping if this matches
the one you already have.
