tires and brakes

[ac92pathfinder]

i have 31's in the front but ones capitol lemans at aka yokhomas geolander at's and the other is enduro runway at. anyways i had 265 70 15 in the front and and those 31's on the rear so one day i went to the tire shop found some 31's there the good yrs wranglers rough treads so i put those on there rear since there matching and put the mixed 31's in the front and i ran 32 psi all around now when i stop i feel like one of the wheel or brakes is catching more that the other kinda has a sway or pull to one side since i put the 31's in the front. is it because i have 2 diffrent brands in the front?

mine did that and i found out my caliper was taking worn out and wasnt releasing very well. also i needed a alinement and all my front end joints were shot

i thought that too but it happened once i put the 31's in the front. Maybe cause i have 2 diffrent tires in the front but the sane size.

well are either of them worn kinda werid? Like does one tire have more tred on the inside then the outside? if so then it could pull a certain way if just one of the tires was like that. DO they both have about the same amount of tred?

i did a straight shot and angle shots

looks like the inner are warn out alittle but i bought these furst 2 in the pics used. they were in a set of 4 all 3 were the same in the second pic and the other one u see first in the pic was the 4th tire and those 2 were the best looks like they have the same wear.

Quick idea to try to see if it's in the tires. Rotate them, put you matching pair on the front and the mix-match ones on the rear and see if there is any changes.

Matching size is all that matters on the diff. Also you want all 4 the same size if you are using 4wd. Using mixed sizes can cause binding.

Like GG said, but always have matching tires up front. Period.
