Tyre safety advice from:
New tyres fitted at the back : (See image on left)
- The handling will be similar to that known by the driver before the tyre change, because the traction balance will be the same.
- Rear traction will be better, and the driver will be able to control and steer their vehicle without a problem by decelerating and turning the steering wheel in the direction of the bend.

New tyres to the rear. The grip is now more balanced allowing you more control in a corner.
New tyres to the front. (above) The front has relatively more grip and the rear will slide first. This is very dangerous.
New tyres fitted to the front : (See image on right)- The behavior of the car will change, because the front / rear balance will be reversed.The driver, used to a car with less grip at the front, will therefore be taken unawares.- On a slippery road, the rear will lose traction before the front of the vehicle.The driver will have no chance of controlling the rear, and will be tempted to accelerate further, which will amplify the spin effect. Only an experienced driver will be able to recover from this dangerous situation...
