I was planing on getting them mounted today since I finally,.....got my two post lift mounted in the garage but, I'm tired today after racing sprints last night and it's frickin raining again !

How are these tires, directional ? Bias tire, block pattern and old school technology ?
from the paint thread in this section......

I'm at work right now and don't have time to find the post, but these tires are directional.

Do a search before you mount them.

I'm going to guess that unless he mounts a lot of these tires, he will not know.

Here is a link to the site that explains it.

Why or how they are directional, I've no idea - but, thanks to Siverback51 that's the way they are now mounting on my Cobra.

The interesting thing is that the source of our tires never mentioned a thing, but probably would have known if asked. I'm an owner, not a builder so thank God for members posting here.

With that said, it's more than passingly strange that this site has more than likely all the information one needs, but that information is easily missed sense it's buried in threads with a lot of useless posts in between. That's life.
