Rule of thumb is Dont run bias-ply Tires with NON bias-ply tires. SOmething to do with there Roundness! SO you either have to buy slicks with runners NON radials, Or Drag radials with Radial fronts. They say if you run slicks out back with radials up front the rear tires work against the front tires and has been known to get the car squirmy.
