If you think about it, the front tires are rotating on an axis going around a turn whilst the rear tires are still trying to go straight around the turn.
This is not exactly true. Steering linkage is designed so that all four tires are following the circumference of a circle and the four circles have different radii. If you want to understand how this works, google "Ackermann steering geometry".
