They can, but the handling will suck so bad it will probably kill you. Smart
answers aside, it's not a good idea. People have tried it for several reasons
(experimenters zeal, financial constraints, ignorance) and the results is
never very pretty. You'll generally have very unpredictable transitions and a
lot of sliding. Fun, but so is driving on ice.

Does anyone know if radial and bias race tires can be mixed successfully?
Would bais race tires on the front and radial race tires on the back be a
good thing for autocross or not as good as all four race radials?  Thanks,
Jim
