backwards tire?

[FzPilot]

is it me or is this guy's tire mounted on backwards?

from the thread pattern it looks to be backwards...

I can't stress it enough how important this is in wet situations, this style tire mounted backwards would pretty much guarantee hydroplaning on wet surfaces. (with enough water and speed of course)

Check your tires people!

It's you. :BLAA: That's a Pilot Road 2, and it's mounted correctly. (I own a set.)

It's good. The tread points in towards the bike.!

Are you sure you have your tires on correctly?

looks ok to me too, some new tyres look like this and it's a bit confusing

It's right, I think a lot of front tires have a similar reverse tread pattern. No clue why, though I'm sure there is a reason for it
