We need a pair of front tyres on the Vito but surprisingly the rears still have plenty of tread left.

Its running GY Vector 4 seasons and they have covered over 20k miles so will probably go for the same.

Question is, new tyres on the front or swap the rears to the front and have new on the rear?

Almost any tyre manufacturer will say tyres with the best tread on the rear.

This'll go on for pages.

What i do is not what is suggested on various tyre maker/distributors sites, if buying two i fit them to the drive axle whichever end that might be but that almost never happens because i rotate to even wear out so buy 4 at a time and prefer having the same all round.
What you do is your choice.
