Mixing the speed rating

I have been looking for new tires for MY07 S.
The best I can find from RE050 is W in front
and Y in the rear. Everything else matches.
Is is ok to have mixed speed ratings on different "axels"?

as long as you're not exceeding the rating of the lower of the two, you're fine; W indicates a max 168mph, Y indicates a max 186mph. i think you're ok.
