|    4runner 2003 Replacing only one tire    |
|    25 Aug 10 20:06:03    |
      From: Chipbee40_SpamNo@yahoo.com              Hi, For the second time in 2 years I got a nail through the tire too       close to the sidewall for repair. First time I replaced all 4 tires. Now       its supposed to be bad to put a new tire on with 3 half worn ,       recommended to replace 2 rear, preferably all 4. that's pushing $800 for       a set, effectively throwing away 3 good tires. So can anyone tell me why       its such a bad idea? (Spares a different brand with full tread) Surely       the drivetrain compensates for the different wheel rotations in normal       driving anyway so why the problem? Traction control should compensate       for the worn tire slipping? Don't suggest part worn tires from       resellers, they are all crap.
