I bought a new tire becuase I discovered a small tear in the rubber of one of my tires. The older one that is still on the bike is not very worn but is a much cheaper tire than the new one. Should I use the new tire for my front or rear wheel for performance and racing?
Thanks.

the rear wears out faster than the front so i would say put it on the rear as this is whats driving you, and stopping you from getting sideways in the tight corners.

dont get bitter, get better

Yep, definately on the rear.

Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.
