If you'd read a little better rather then burn what little brain power you have left on lame comments, you'd see that I put the argument for talentless, physics challenged drivers (since you're such a fan of less grip where its needed for optimal performance, I'll include you in that group), in the first sentence. Of course kids who dont know how to drive should be forced to use training wheels (more grip where its not useful to remain in optimal control of your vehicle).OptiSoc wrote: ↑Wow you totally went full tart and pulled a bull out of your rear end (pun intended).
Let me dumb this down for you. For the safety of the general public, the rear of the car should ALWAYS have the best grip. In case of a tyre change, the better (meaning higher grip/better tread) tyre should be at the back. This is because in case of any kind of hydroplaning/oversteer/loss of grip situations, the rear would maintain stability better than the front. Yes, the car would understeer, but at least when it happens you know you are going too fast for the conditions. Most drivers, even the less technically inclined, should be able to correct an understeer situation. Things are NOT the same with oversteer, since it requires precision steering and great knowledge of vehicle physics to not screw up and overcorrect.
On Front wheel drive cars, the driven wheels CHANGE the direction the car is going, but the rear wheels maintain the stability to get round the corner/go a straight line. If the rear wheels are unable to maintain traction, the front wheels can do nothing to stop the car from losing control.
Next time before you want to spew any more of those false information, perhaps at least do a revision high school physics and drive an actual car beforehand. Kthxbye.
Spew miss information lol, you're all buying into the nanny state mentality that neuters any performance gains from putting grip where it belongs. The bigger problem is that instead of teaching people how to drive properly and within the vehicles limits, they hand out driving licenses in cracker jack boxes, so any halfwit can get behind the wheel without recognizing the proper driving techniques to be an apt and aware driver, and consequently because of the appalling driving conditions\accidents that the halfwits cause, the government has to step in and tell everyone to literally rob your car of handling ability, neutering any advantage the vehicle would have in case of an emergency avoidance maneuver, they'll just simply plow into said obstacle without even a chance of driving around it.
Please put a big sticker in the front of your car that way i know to switch lanes if i see you in my mirror, that way i know i wont be rear ended when your grip-less front tires simply cant cope with the inertial momentum in the car and slide into the poor sap you're going to violate from behind, since im sure you're driving some old rust bucket without all the nanny electronic aids that literally will not let you loose control regardless of where the best tires are, abs included (that right there nullifies whatever counter argument you can think off).
