Can I fit new all weather tyres to the front of my car and have summer tyres on the rear?

Can I fit new all weather tyres to the front of my Honda CR-V 2.2 i-DTEC and have summer tyres on the rear which still have a lot of tread?

No, because it will affect the automatic operation of the 4WD system. It needs to be on all four wheels.

Check Tyres On The Drive (bit.ly/2ZlEVaR) and Blackcircles.com (bit.ly/2JM6bqG) for sizes and prices and read our Tyre Buying Guide (bit.ly/2wsFHBU)

From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.
