Tires: Tread Direction

   / Tires: Tread Direction #11  
Another reason people run them backwards with loaders is to give it some extra traction when backing up in an uphill situation.

Get one of the switched.

We can argue all day about forward or reverse direction. Theres pro's and con's to both. So what you decide is your personal choice.

But having one forward and one reversed does no good at all. Get them going the same direction, doesnt matter what way though.

With R4 tires I can't see that it would make a LOT of difference. They don't work well in mud anyway. But as LD1 said having them opposite does no good. My OCD side comes out in situations like this. Would drive me crazy just looking at it. I'd hafta dismount and change one of them for sure. :)
