I ran an MEZ4 on the rear with the BT57 on the front for two weeks while
awaiting the arrival of the MEZ4 front.  No handling problems at speeds up
to 100 mph.  Can't say I'd recommend it for extended periods, though.  I
still had a good 1000 miles left in the front, but replaced it with the MEZ4
anyway when it came in.

Does anyone know if you can have a Bridgestone front and a Metzeler rear (or
vice versa) or do they both need to be the same.

The reason for asking is that I will need to replace my front fairly soon
but the rear still has plenty of life in it.  I am looking to change to the
MEZ's but don't want to replace the rear unless I need to keep them the
same.

Any guidance would be gratefully received.

Peter
