Rotating Tires/Wheels
 
Hey guys - I wanted to know what I can expect if I rotated the two rears to the front. I currently have stock Michelins up front but the two rears had to be replaced due to punctures. I got the Sumitomo HTR ZII's for the rears as a temporary replacement and they were cheap. The front Primacies have about 36k on them and the HTRs have about 5k on them. Basically, I wanted to know if there is adverse affects on handling/driveability? Will it be a good move? Thanks for your input.

It is pretty straight forward. If the replacement Sumitomo's are gripy-er than the stock Michelin's then moving them to the front will make for a more oversteery balance and vice versa, if they are less grippy it will make the balance more understeery.
