enough said..dont forget to rotate your tires. Especially if you have short life tires/low tread wear.

Why? Two tires are cheaper than four.

while this might work on a 2wd car, or one with a mild traction device installed, when you get into 4wd vechicals and those with posi/locker style traction devices, it can create excessive wear on the clutches and gears.

oh, when Im in 4wd Hi in the durango and I do semi tight circles at speeds just above a crawl, my tires constantly squeel. I have to give it gas otherwise it will hold traction and actually act like a brake. I love trac-lok differientials

hmmm... could also be the 5spd or maybe that little snail thingy towards the passenger side of your engine bay.
