Snow tires. One on the front and one on the back
If I only have two snow tires for 2008 ES, Is it wise to put one on the front and one in the back? Or should I just put both of them on the front? Thank you

Personally I wouldn't install only a pair. There are 3 AWD cars in my family.. All has two sets of tires/rims for summer and winter. I switch them myself.

Yeah you really should go with 4.
There's some debate about whether to install them on the front or rear of a front wheel drive car if only going with 2. The theory for putting them on the back is to help prevent the back end from fishtailing or sliding out.

Ideally. you should install 4. If you want to install only a pair install them on driven axle(I believe ES is FWD?) Never one in the front and one in the back.
