Yes, generally there is a difference between just summer and all season tires. The summer tires will be stickier because the manufactures don't have to worry about colder temps. Its all about the chemistry of the tire. high performance tires are great if you only use them in the summer. They all all designed to an extent of shedding some water.However, so if you not driving consistently in the rain (like in seattle) then the summer tires should be fine. Yes you can run different manufactures front and rear, but not side to side. And don't expect high performance tires to last longer than say 10,000 miles if you drive aggresively

Personally, i only use Bridgestone tires, if they are good enough to win 7 formula one championships and have become the sole supplier to F1 then they are good enough for me.

hope this helps
