Obviously you can, but it's not a good idea because the cars handling will be unpredictable in any kind of spirited driving or in an emergency situation. Go one way or the other.

This.

Sell the "new" rears and buy a full set of match non-RFTs.

I bought already new Goodyear asymmetric 3,I can not believe how hard they are this RFT,this new tires on front change my car and comfort better.I'm not sure about the instability, after a will drove some time i will write impression.Everybody on the forums say it can not, but my vulcanizers say they can be freely put without consequences.
