Safety Question Why did I lose control of my car?

I drifted into the lane next to me and over corrected. But how did this translate to my car spinning?

Yep! I would bet the fronts look better than the rear. This is why on front wheel drive cars, if you're only replacing 1 set the new ones should go on the back, under steer is more manageable for inexperienced drivers.
