That's not a terrible situation because it tends to encourage
understeer, which most people find controllable.
When you can get yourself in trouble is when you have worse traction in
back -- for example, two new tires in front and two relatively bald ones
in the back, on a wet road. Then you're likely to get "ambushed" in a
corner.
Another NASTY situation is two summer tires with plenty of tread up
front and two studded snows on the rear on a WET surface. Talk about the
rear trying to pass the front of the car!
