How to Identify the Front and Back Sides of a Tire?
1 Answers
There are several methods to distinguish the front and back sides of a tire: 1. Observe the English words on the tire. The outer side will have the word 'outside,' while the inner side will have 'inside.' 2. Choose to place the side of the tire with a yellow dot on the outer side, aligning the hollow red dot with the heaviest installation position of the valve stem on the wheel hub. 3. Identify by the manufacturing date on the tire sidewall; the side with the production date is the front side of the tire. 4. Unidirectional tread tires will have an arrow on the sidewall, indicating the direction of wheel rotation. Install the tire following the direction of the arrow.
