rossislider Report post Posted September 3, 2018 Took my Ranger tire down to Discount Tire on Saturday to have a small leak fixed. When I went to put it on I realized they reversed the tred direction. Is it worth the hassle to take it back? What are the draebacks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoss50 Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Have them flip it. Tires like this are typically directional, and it is better to have them in the right direction. For a spare or just a get me by type thing it wouldn't really matter much, but if it is a main tire I would have them flip it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
