Hello, welcome to the forums.

I don't see why you would use a tacky rubber on the backhand. But I really have no idea.

What style/game do you play?

theres nothing wrong with that setup however, why would you put 2.5 on your backhand. Another question is what is your skill level and style of play

Its ok, realistically you can play with anything up to a certain level. As you become a better player you may want a softer faster rubber on your bh and a better fh rubber. That setup is fine for now though.

generally they are more expensive, you may want something that's more central to what your style is. for example, if you loop alot on your fh but not hard you may want hurricane or skyline because they offer more spin. If you like to play away from the table you may want a fast rubber. You don't need a really thick rubber. I use 2.1 on both sides and have no problems with it. Ultimately it comes down to what you enjoy playing with. That is the main function of this forum, for people to share their experiences with different equipment for other peoples benefit.

I would put 2mm on both sides not 2.5mm on the backhand
Blade - Xiom 36.5 ALX FL
Forehand - Xiom Omega V Asia 2.0mm
Backhand - Victas Curl P5V with Der Materialspezialist Firestorm Soft/Outkill 1.8mm sponge

In go and chess, pros sometimes say to amateurs:- "play anywhere you like! your living does not depend on it "

So enjoy it while you can. Typically though most players carry a hammer on their t forehand and have more control on the backhand, but of course you may be the exception
