Silverstone sport directional tyre

Use these in the wet with them on the wrong way and it will force the water into the centre of the tyre not fun

Thats 'em Les, Assymetric or is it omni directional, marked up which way around,

Directionals have an arrow on.

 

The Yoko's look the same on both sides if fitted correctly.

I have spoken with my local tyre fitter and he will be taking a look tomorrow, he's confused too if thats any help.

This is the conti website, it states which is the outer edge of the tyre. Yours appear to be correct.

It's official Continental Premium Contact assymetric tread tyres on my Robin Hood are fitted correctly. I showed them to the boys (4 fitters and the manager) down at ATS and they verify they are O.K.

 

Well, that put's my mind at rest.

 

Thank's for your help Hoodz.
