My rear Pirellis are about wore out. The front tires have plenty left on them. Just wondering how the car would perform with a different brand of tire on the rear only. Looking at getting the Continental EtremeComtact DW. Also wondering if it would look funny. If it might cause a problem ill just replace all four.

These are both close enough in performance that it would be okay to do that mix. It wouldn't look bad IMO. It's always best to run a matching set however. 4 of a kind always beats 2 pair.
