Anyone for a crash



  V6 255, 172's, JCW,
Has anyone noticed how much less the tread there is on the rear tyres compared to the front.. if the lad was used to different handling characteristics, and 'possibly' a little less experienced than some.. its hardly suprising the back end has stepped out a bit.

We've all done silly things in our cars beore.. he got unlucky. A lesson learnt hopefully. Wasn't there trade guidlines brought out a couple of years ago about either the front or rear of any car having the greater tread? E.g... Car has worn tyres on the front, good on rear... gets the worn tyres replaced, but the new ones are fitted to the rear and the good rear ones fitted to the front.... i'm sure I remember seeing a write up somewhere and chatting to a workshop manager.

Hope you manage to get paid out sooner rather than later and get a replacement for it fella.

If it has to happen, might as well make a proper job of it!! Gutting none the less!
 
you can have little grip at the front and deal with it as you are constantly steering those wheels. with no grip at the rear there is nothing you can do, no control.

Gutted :(

Although this backs up the 'never ever ever, put more worn tyres on the rear of a car, you will oversteer, you wil run out of talent, you will crash'

LOLz my TT currently has part worn Wanlni's (Bought by last owner) on the front and shagged Eagle F1's on the back. I class the shagged F1's as better than the Wanlni's lol
