    Where to put the best tyres?

    Ford Ford Advice Ford Falcon Ford Falcon Advice Ford Falcon 2012

    I recently dropped my 2012 Falcon off at my dealership to get two worn-out tyres replaced. The dealer advised me that they would put the old pair on the rear and the new pair on the front. I am very sure that having worn-out tyres at the back will compromise stability, traction and can cause loss of control. Can you please shed some light about this issue?

    I presume they are putting the new tyres on the front, which is the best place for them, as they're the wheels that steer and brake, and they're moving the old tyres, which I presume are not worn-out, from the front to the rear. Talk to the people who did the work to confirm. I doubt they would fit worn-out tyres to the rear of your car.
