Question 996 C4S: mixing tires?

Hey Everyone-

I know this isn't exactly the right forum to discuss a P-car, but I know some of you have some experience with Porsches and I'm trying to get as much feedback as possible.

We just put some new Pirelli's on my Father's 2002 C4S because one tire had a puncture. But shortly thereafter (like, within a month) the same thing happened to the rears.

But we didn't want to use the Pirellis anymore when I discovered how much better (and longer lasting) the Bridgestone Potenza S-02s are.

So we put the Bridgestones on the rear.

Some people havfe advised me that this is really bad, esp since we're taking the car to Thunderhill Raceway on May 10.

Thoughts?
