tread direction
I just put on new tires, with the arrows in the correct direction but noticed the tread is opposite direction between the front and rear. The rear as the tread reaches the road the groves run from center out and opposite on the front tire. Out to in. Why is this?

Re: tread direction
the front tread follows the rotation for stability and grip in corners, the rear the opposite for stability and grip to drive the bike forward.

Re: tread direction
no probs, regardless of tread direction it will squeeze water away to prevent the hydroplane effect when in water.
