Personally I'd have no worries about mixing 021 and 020 at all, hey, I have a Sportec and a Diablo Strada fitted just now, I fit essentially whatever is in the garage when I need a tyre Doesn't worry me in the slightest. Now, I'm not saying you should do it, this is just what I do not advice. SOme people would completely disagree, in fact I know one guy who insists you must never fit a mismatched tyre or you'll die, and you should always replace both at the same time- which to me is obvious idiocy, but he seems to be happy to throw away fronts which are barely broken in.
Tell him to throw some of those fronts my way

I've nearly convinced him to let me do his tyres in future so hopefully I'll get them Strange risk assessment that, "No, I won't mix old and new tyres. But I will let a cack-handed monkey man fit them for me"
