    I wouldn't have 2 different types/ages on the same end (front/back). Replace both back tires at the same time.
    You'll shoot your eye out.

    Re: tires

    It won't hurt anything as long as you keep them the same size. On a 4x4 if you run different sizes anywhere you will do damage. The only thing you are gonna do is have a terrible ride because of the different brands, but it won't be any worse than what you have with a Firestone and a Wrangler tire on it now, those two have terrible rides.

    Re: tires

    Yes same size is fine. You will just be able to tell a difference in the ride between the two different brands especially cornering one will have more sidewall flex than the other.

    Re: tires

    I always thought it was "tars".
