Mixing tyre types

[Brinyan]

We have a ‘very dull’ Honda CR-V. It’s front wheel drive until the front wheels loose traction, bringing the rear wheels into drive. It needs new front tyres. Been looking at Michelin Cross Climates. I recall reading somewhere a while back that winter tyres should only be fitted to all wheels - would this apply to cross climates also? Only really want to replace fronts for now & get matching rears when needed. Thanks

Sounds like you've been having fun with your CR-V

Haha - I really don’t think that’s possible…

Is it too late to swap the front and rear wheels so all tyres are done at roughly the same time?

That’s a good suggestion - think I’ll do that, then replace them all at the same time. Cheers
