Just a quickie.....
Ok so as may have been seen on the run thread, im in need of a pair of new shoes for the front end of the car.
The rears are pretty good, on her atm are Toyo Proxes T1R's, on a 215 45 17 all round.
I have been happy with the performance of the Toyos and have gone through a few sets over the years, but i do find they dont last a hellova time with me.
So the question is, I have been wanting to try the Falken FK452's for quite a while, however with the purchase of a new property, i dont wanna be buying a full set. Would i be ok to keep the Toyos on the back and have Falkens on the front, and in time change the rears for Falkens?
Ive heard of problems regarding ''winding the diffs up'' if you have differnet tires front and back and such, is this right? Would i be safer just going for another pair of Toyos up front and in the future when i want to change to Falkens?
As always, thanks in advance for any (contsructive--Ty--) replies.
