Message	You shouldn't mix new & substantially used tires on the rear axle - it can actually damage the diff and mess w. the ABS. If keeping the 1 used one you should find a matching model in similar wear / use. Check eBay for used singles or pairs. Otherwise replace the rear pair w. new, they tend to be used faster then the fronts anyway.
