New wheels and tyres

[lisa30]

Hi ive just purchased some 17" alloys with toyo tyres on 4 altogether
i was reading about someone saying dont put new ones on the back is this correct
At the moment ive got 2 on the back the same and 2 different on the front and
iv had a couple of spinning out of control moments especially when going around a roundabout
Is this anything to do with tyres
Please give me your views

You should allow tryes a few miles to bed in, there is a film over them to protect the rubber. I had a brown stain moment shortly after buying my new tyres, but after a few weeks I had loads of grip.

If brand new tyres, did you see them fitted??? Did they take the stuck on labels off???

Agree with the above, need to let tyres scrub off new tyres.

Also worth checking tyre pressures.

They will take the labels off unless you get the YTS retard doing it, so dont worry about that.

Spinning out at islands with 3 different tyre patterns on your car.. no wonder really

You'll notice an immediate improvement, not just because you have matching tyres but the lack of sidewall on the tyres over the 17" rims will keep you on the straight and narrow.

I know the guys at my local ATS tyres pretty well, i always wheelspin away and handbrake turn off their carpark to scrub the tyres off everytime i get a new set. (only when its safe obviously )
