Would a tire that is losing pressure rapidly be safer on the front or back of the car?
A low tire has more rolling resistance and more grip, and that’s where you’d want it. I’m concerned that you (Malice) marked that best answer when it is based on a fundamental flaw of reasoning. An under inflated tyre has less grip than a properly inflated tyre in normal road driving. Any pressure over or under the nominal inflation range of a tyre produces less grip. Less or more grip for inflation pressure within the nominal range is specific to the loads and expected surfaces for an application. The sentence I have highlighted is fundamentally wrong without considering any of those provisos, especially if normal driving is being considered. Also, despite you getting a little antsy about people ‘actually answering the question’ it mainly revolves around your missing their point. It is not safe to have an under inflated tyre (especially one that keeps losing pressure) on either end of the car. and any justification for either end of the car is missing the point. I agree that the rear
