I have used mixed II an III Anakees on a number of occasions and have had no problems however you might want to check the manufacturer recommendations for safety.

As for Pilot Roads, am currently running the Pilot 4 trails which are a road tyre. I really like them, handle well wet and dry and give you confidence when cornering and braking. Seem to wear well too.

Have a really close look at the tread wear on the front, if there is any sign of uneven wear, sometimes referred to as cupping, it's going to go off really quick so change it.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

I still reckon the tyre that gave the best Road Handling on the Girly was the Conti Trail Attack II's, dont let the "Trail" moniker fool ya, its a Road attack with a trail look. They last well too.
