[Mgs] Tires... Bah

[PaulHunt73]

I think you are being over-cautious not wanting to mix axles (if you could 
get any, that is), particularly with rain.  As long as the ones with the 
best grip are on the rear you should be fine.  Over 40 years ago when I 
first changed from crossply to radial I couldn't afford four, and it was 
really frustrating to put a pair on the back then wait until I could afford 
another pair for the front to get the full benefit.  I'm surprised you don't 
have online specialists available to you.
