Traction. You don't want tires that grip better on one end of the car compared to the other, too easy to loose control in an emergency situation. Same reason why tire dealers encourage you to buy 4 snow tires instead of two. If you just put snow tires on the front of a fwd car you will find it very easy to loose control of the back of the car.
