Here's an interesting anecdote: Tesla cars have traction control that monitors the differential in rotation speed among the four tires. If you put new tires on the rear and leave worn tires on the front, the rotation differential between the inside rear and outside front on a tight curve is enough to fool the traction control into thinking the worn front tire is slipping and will pulse the brakes on that wheel only. It's pretty unnerving. Put new tires on the front and the problem is solved.
