Placing a less thread tyre at the front will avoid oversteer too, when in the wet.. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />The real reason behind the rule of thumb of placing a newer tyre in front is to avoid an exploded front tyre. If a sudden deflation of tyre must happen, I choose it to be my rear tyre because if its your front tyre, there's no chance to steer no matter how PRO u r.I never use a tyre with puncture history in front (these tyres have greater chance of sudden deflation or explode). I either keep them as spare or use at the rear, no matter how much thread they have.</blockquote>
