Tyre tread pattern


Recommended Posts

Posted

My eBay bought set of Toyo r888r arrived and I had them fitted yesterday , as it was raining I took it straight to its garage and put it away . 

Took it for a blast this morning and noticed the tread patterns on the wheels are different , have they been fitted correctly , perhaps they should be like this ?

Is there a direction arrow? Can you swop them round ?

What does the rotation direction indicator on the tyre wall say

There doesn't seem to be a directional arrow ,but the word inside is  on the tyre on the inside edge .

i thought the were a  good  buy ,but they look a little odd .

They're fitted correctly, and the outer tread pattern is what it is, ie non-directional.

You're not the first to query this btw...!

This is the trouble with r888r's they are not paired  that's why I stick to r888's, call it OCD but it would bug me being odd:suspect:

But as said check the arrows on the tyre.

@Sycho as stated above, no arrows on them just inside and outside.

I can live with the fact they look a bit odd  [you should see the wife ] as.long as all is well I can push on with confidence.  

Cheers :yes:

Yes I know toooo slow again!!!!

think about it they can't have arrows on you need a symmetrical pattern for that.
