Even though my 82 928 is rear-wheel drive, do the front wheels also spin at a lesser rate?

 

Only if the A/C in on.

 

 

My a/c's not working...........is that why the rear tyres wear out and the fronts don't.

 

Just dial in about 5 degrees Camber on the fronts and they'll wear evenly. :>)

 

what are you really asking?

mk

 

When the back ones are not spinning more than the front ones, they are spinning just as much as the front ones.

 

If your doing a Bill Ball impression......the fronts spin much slower

 

they would only spin, if the car:
a) would actually move
B) the steering wheel is turned at the same time
c) the flux- capacitator is engaged

 

Better get Geico!

 

They can be. but then again, then they could be spining slower too.

 

Yes! Because "rate" implies a measurement of something over time, and I am also assuming that the front and rear wheels are both of the same diameter, but the tires are of a different aspect ratios, the front wheels spin at a lessewr rate when you are driving normally. However, due to the fact that 928's have more than ample torque throughout their power band, the reverse may also be the case. Well, unless you're going in reverse.

 

If an airplane is taking off on a very long conveyor belt...

 

Don't forget if you're south of the equator, they'll spin left-to-right instead of the more common right-to-left.

 

Yo yo... my fly 20's gots some Spinnas dat still spin when I ain't movin' yo! Day sho is fly, no what I'm sayin'... Peace Out.
