Along with all the posts in the thread the OP admits he needs new tires
anyway...

The latest information I have read is that the best tread should be
mounted
to the rear axle.

2x on that. Best tires on the rear axle. It's easier to control a blowout on
the front, you can still steer.
Rear blowouts are prone to causing the rear to come around, IE spin out.
