I went to Firestone to have my rear tires replaced on my all wheel drive SUV and the mechanic disagreed with me when I told him to take the front tires off and put them in the back and put the New tires on the front of the car. I thought this was common practice. I ended up buying 4 brand new tires, but I was wondering if I was wrong and what the reasoning is behind putting New tires in the rear.
