Strongly considering going with Nitto555's up front and Nitto555R's in the rear. Question is this. I have a very badly and misworn RF tire because of an alignment issue. My LF isn't really that worn. Should I swap them both out anyway? Is it really an issue? Thanks.

Click to expand...

Swap them both out (if money allows) because that can lead to situations you don't want - accident.

If you got the money put all four tires on and get a good tire/alignment/balance shop to get you fixed up...

You don't want to put on just one good tire and the others used...

Good Luck with it...I got to get me the same setup as you are...I'm going with the 245/50/16's all around...Dr's in the back and the regular 555's up front to match the tread pattern...
