Two rules I'd follow. Match 'em up on each axle, though I personally wouldn't have a problem with three matching with one close oddball, but best to have matching tires on each axle.
And this ones tough to fathom for some, but very true, best tires on the rear always, FWD, RWD, AWD whatever. You want the nose to stay in front of the tail end in an emergency and better, newer tires have more traction and need to be on the rear to prevent problems in low tractions situations where most problems occur.
