This has been mentioned a few times over the years: Avon CRZ66 are directional...
On my iPhone I can't find any thread to help me give instruction to my tyre fitters this morning.
Can anybody point me to the info?
Thanks!

The 4-digit code on the sidewall needs to face to the right on the rears & to the left on the fronts ...

This might make it easier to explain to them:

I made the comment a while ago in another thread, that reversing directional tyres on the front helps with rear wheel drive cars under braking and got laughed at..
Good to see the info has come up again from a "more reputable source"

Years ago we ran Michelin TB20s which had directional arrows on them.
Michelin said on RWD cars arrows at the top of the tyre point forward on the rears and backwards on the fronts.
