Even with FWD I'd be wary of having crap tyres on the back, you can get some nasty snap lift-off oversteer on some of em :O

As with all cars, keep the best tyres on the back...

Agreed....unless its FWD.....then the backs only go around for the fun of it....imo
Even with FWD - best tyres on rear is the standard advice.

Probably tyres... BUT don't overlook geometry - wrong suspension settings can cause strange behaviour. Check www.wheels-inmotion.co.uk for more info - some of us southerners (myself included) had out cars done at Tony's and the difference is huge...
