My rear driver side tire went flat today and in searching for a replacement, I found that my car (recently purchased) has two different types of tires on it. Both of my front tires are Firehawk GTA-2's. My rear passenger tire is a Goodyear Eagle GT-HR and my rear driver tire is a Firehawk GTA-2's. My question is if all four tires must be the same or if the front two must match and the back two must match, but all four don't have to.

Thank you.

If the dimensions are the same and the ratings for heat, wear, and traction are the same you'll get by. I prefer to see a matched set on my own car, but people have mixed for years.
