Directional Tire Question

Recommended Posts

I'm running MT Baja Claw tires, which are directional, and I had heard that bad things can happen if you ran the tires in the reverse direction. I've heard everything from "the belts will break in the tire" to "nothing bad but will have a lot of road noise". So, does anyone now the truth about this ?

 

Reason I'm asking is that I'm about due for new tires but I want to burn the old ones off and be able to rotate in the spare. When I go with new tires they will not be directional ( thinkin BFG KM2 ) and will be a few inches taller than what I'm running now.

 

Of course, if anyone is looking for a new MT Baja Claw LT315/75R16, let me know and I will give you a good price on my spare. it's new and has never been run. I know most folks don't run the 16 inch rim so that's another reason I was just going to burn them off before I put on new tires.

 

Thanks for any information on this !

Nothing will happen, I flip my tires around all over the place to get them to wear even. George:cool:

Thanks George ! This will make it easier to burn them off equally. Get my monies worth out of them, so to speak. Of course all I need to do now is find time to go out and do some wheeling !

 

Thanks again for the help !!
