 The Horizon is a front wheel drive car. From my experience with
font wheel drive is that the front tires wear about 2-3 times as
fast as the rear ones. Front wheel drive cars are front heavy plus
the front tires must also steer and transmit all the driving force.
The rear tires just go for the ride. It is quite normal to find the 
front tires wearing much faster than the rear ones.
