By my experience, almost all cars experience more tire wear on the front than the rear -- not just front wheel drive cars.I took my 88 Volvo to the Firestone shop to have them re-install the all-weather tires and remove the snow tires. They put the rear tire on the front. When I pointed out that the least worn tire should be on the front, they said this was their policy to avoid oversteer during braking.If many cars, including the 88 Volvo, have tires which wear most on the front, and if they always put the worn tires on the front (even without the customer‘s notification or permission) THEN it is never possible to extend tire wear by rotating the slightly worn tires to the rear.1) Do you know of cars which tend to wear most on the front?2) Isn‘t the point of rotating tires to extend the life of the tires by swapping front to rear?To me this is just a scam by Firestone to sell more tires. And incidentally, they would have to put the brand new tire on the REAR, minimizing overall tire life.
alway place better tire on rear standard practice not a scam front wheels tend to wear more yes but not reason for placing better tires on rear to prevent fish tailing it rain lost of control standard to place better tire on rear the point of rotating tires to extend the life of the tires by swapping front to rear yes but no reason to rotate a wore out tire over safety of placement which is why they put better tire on rear for your safety you roate tires at every oil change but you dont roate a wore out tire you replace even then new tire go to rear here a few links but youy can search for your self type into search box where to add new tires or just call three brand name tire stores where to place new tires how to check tire tread how to read tire wear
