What setup do you have on your car, and does having larger tires on the rear help?

Very good question and glad to hear you are "light in the rear" ... you should consider yourself lucky! LOL
I think an additional question would be "what do you think looks good and handles best" ... and personally I would go with the big and littles on rallys. As far as rotating, I do not think that should enter into the equation but, assuming the tires (or rims) are not directional I would think flipping from side-to-side would solve any wear problems .... and, of course, the rear set should ALWAYS wear faster than the front. <wink>
