Note that it is typically considered safest to have the grippier tires on the rear as it is less likely to cause oversteer. I personally do not agree with this as I would rather be able to brake/steer and deal with a little oversteer, but stats have shown that understeer is safer for most drivers.
Actually, it is the rear tires that help you stop. That's why the best tires are installed in the rear.

But since we tend to rotate our tires and change all 4 when they are done for, we always put the less worn in front so at the end of the season, all tires are worn equal.

In an ideal world, you would wear down the front tires, and get new tires for the rear and move the old ones to the front.
