New tyres on a Hyundai i10

My i10 needs new front tyres. I am thinking of using Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons 'all seasons' tyres. Will they be OK with the original Hankook Optimos still on the back wheels?

Answered by Honest John

For stability when wet braking, best to fit all round or fit the Vectors on the back until the original Optimos wear out and can be replaced by Vectors.
