I never could understand the whole slashing of the tires thing. Too much like work. Much easier to just cut the valvestem, or remove it'* core.
Don't ask me how I know this

when you get only 2 new tires, the new tires should go on the rear. with old tires on the rear and new tires on the front the back end can/will try to pass the front end when the road is wet. the CHP always puts the best tires on the rear. if its good enough for the CHP its good enough for me.

But, I had heard that too, about putting the good tires on the back on a FWD. I actually met someone that that happened to. Almost killed him.

it makes no difference if its front or rear wheel drive, the good tires go on the back.
when you put the old tires up front you can feel the car start to push or plow.
when the old tires are on the rear your car can go into a snap spin with out any warning.
i use to put my old tires on the back until my cousin(CHP mechanic) told me why the new tires should go on the rear.
