Best Answer

You should always install 2 new tires on the rear of the vehicle, regardless of where the drive wheels are. The reason for this is that it is much easier to control understeer (the front wheels sliding out) than oversteer (the rear wheels sliding out). This is why if you are unable to replace all 4 tires at the same time, you always want your newer tires on the rear.

Can you put new tires on the front and move the front tires to the rear?

This is an age-old question. Personally, I ALWAYS have the best rubber on the front regardless front-wheel drive or rear. The MOST dangerous place to have a blowout at highway speeds is the left front (driving on the right countries). A blowout tends to pull the vehicle suddenly to the left, i.e., TOWARD oncoming vehicles.Having good tires all the way around is important, certainly, but if you buy a pair at a time, I advise the newest go in front, the older in the rear, and the best of the two being replaced goes to the spare.
