Hi guys. Need some info quick please. Got a puncture in one of the front tyres. Thing is this... Can I just change the one, do I need to change both on the same axle, or have I got to change all four?
All the tyres are about half worn (still have a fair bit of tread).

Best thing to do is change one then swap the back two for the front two and vise versa.

Thanks Doc, but what difference will that make? The reason I put this post up is because I had a Calibra Turbo and all the tyres had to be within 2mm of each other or the transfer box would wind itself up and disintegrate over time. If I had a puncture on that car then I had to pull a fuse to disconnect drive to the rear.
