Well, the test was on a car with front wheel drive. Nevertheless, I have been told
that regardless of whether RWD or FWD, the best tires go on the rear wheels. If you
drive so fast in bad weather that you loose grip on your less good frontwheels, you
are more likely to still have grip with your better rear tires. If you put the new
tires in the front, youre most likely to have NO grip whatsoever once your front
weels start to skid.
