    As a temporary measure, I've been running bias front and radial rear. Other than looking pretty bad, I've had no handling issues what-so-ever.

    Probably won't have any issues in normal driving, stuff in into a corner really hard and you'll understand why it's not good to mix radials and bias tires.....
