Using RWD wheels in FWD cars

While the wheels will bolt on nicely, the offset is different and can adversely effect handling and turning radius. I have seen 850s with 700/900 wheels mounted and wondered why.

As to the possibility of lawn mower syndrome, it would happen to all of the lifters at the same time. He did have the engine running for a while.
