Has anyone had any differential issues by replacing just one or two tires on your AllTrac?
(Same size and speed rating, just different amount of wear or brand)
I'm asking because the tire shop guy said that a Subaru owner replaced one blown out tire instead of all four and it burnt out the differential due to different tracking, ride height and wear pattern. He did say it depends on the car but he swears this happened. Sounds like 100% horseshit to me but just thought I'd throw it our there.
I cannot imagine that a Subaru diff would be that sensitive and fragile, it was probably on the way out anyways.
