    4drive and new tyres

    Not really as without changing front to back you end up with back tyres that may not be worn but aged... Ideally you do not want tyres that are more than 4-5 years old on performance car Sent from my EVR-L29 using Tapatalk

    4drive and new tyres

    Only on permanent 4wd you should replace all 4 tyres at the same time to avoid rolling difference between wheels... Next time round just swap front with back to keep even wear on all 4 tyres. Sent from my EVR-L29 using Tapatalk
