Do you run a coolant or distilled water?  If you run coolant it more than likely will have all the anti corrosion you'll need to prevent any issues due to mixed metal type.

Ek coolant 100ml mixed with distilled water clear for now.

If you continue to use any of the EK-Ekoolants you'll be absolutely fine in your choice of any rad mix.

I'm pretty sure those are aluminum radiators so I would avoid them like the plague!!!!

edit: they are aluminum

0ld_Chicken is right, aluminium-radiators should be avoided. Mixing metals almost guarantees problems. Just get one good quality copper radiator instead and you will have no problems.
