You are okay to run RFT on rear and normal on the front however

Where did you hear this from?
To the OP:
With regards to having rft on the front, so that you have "safer handling" in case of a puncture?!!!!....WTF?...
Sorry mate....but in case of a puncture on rft, the handling would never be "safer" or "better"!!!!....Yes, it will allow you to drive the car for xxx miles at no more than xx mph ( can't remember the exact speed limit you're meant to drive with a punctured rft).
I had a puncture on the rear rft and even driving slowly, the back came out at a roundabout!!! and I think that, I even had traction control on that day...which is quite unusual...
I wouldn't mix tyres IMO. Not saying that you face a certain death if you do....but, it will cause lots of issues with insurance and handling dynamics of the car ...not worth the hassle IMO.
