Where should you put your worst tires? I say put them on the front. If
you have a tire problem you can control a skid best if the problem is
with the tire on the front. If the problem is on the rear the skid will
be a lot harder to control. * * * * * * What do ya`ll think?

Answer: New tires go on the rear of the vehicle - FWD, RWD, 4WD or AWD


"Answer: New tires go on the rear of the vehicle - FWD, RWD, 4WD
or AWD"

Allow me to rephrase that...

Answer: The tires with the deepest tread go on the rear of the vehicle
- FWD, RWD, 4WD or AWD

If the new tires do not have as deep a tread as the old ones then they
should go on the front.
