gn2 New Member Mar 18, 2010 #1 My 2001 Freelander TD4 needs new front tyres, the rear ones still have a fair bit of wear left, is it OK to just change the fronts, or is it necessary or preferable to change all four tyres?

freebiker Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2010 #2 Advice i've been given before, is to swap the rears to the front and put the new ones on the rear. Quite advisable as the fronts need to turn faster than the rears else you'll get VCU and IRD problems hence rears need larger circumference.
