No, they are mounted correctly.I don't know, but from the tire track it sure looks like it's on backwards. That would help with braking maybe but would hydroplane easy I would think.

It is correct; the v is pointed down at front of tire:I don't know, but from the tire track it sure looks like it's on backwards. That would help with braking maybe but would hydroplane easy I would think.

Agree however they are amazing quiet in dry, epic on wet and extremely capable in moderate snow and slush. They also wear well over time unlike most garbage that gets noisy after 10-25k miles.Why do they look like ag tires View attachment 204942

CC2 finally bested by new competitors from Continental, Bridgestone and Pirelli
In looking closely, I don’t see anything else in those tests beating the CC2 overall when considering the total balance of all variables, personally. Some might disagree, that’s fine.

should be correct. just looks backwards because: physics.I don't know, but from the tire track it sure looks like it's on backwards. That would help with braking maybe but would hydroplane easy I would think.
The Chinese are starting to build some pretty good tires. Lots of people are happy with their venom power xt tires and they are cheaper than the other rugged at tires so they sell good.It is not bested if you want snow performance.
I am disappointed by their budget tire choice. Its like the chose one of the worst one possible.
Like you know it has a C rating, what did you expect?
I don't know how it is in other countries, but in Canada more and more people are choosing Chinese tires.
It looks like Michelin and other tire brands see this and are scared.
Which just goes to prove that the same people that are "rah rah, buy American/Canadian" and then feign lament with respect to job losses and why our manufacturing sectors are basket cases, have a price.The Chinese are starting to build some pretty good tires.

On another hand, the only way to catch upside amid all the downside of inequitable global trade is to try to save expenses. I am not sure there’s much alternative choice on a large scale.Which just goes to prove that the same people that are "rah rah, buy American/Canadian" and then feign lament with respect to job losses and why our manufacturing sectors are basket cases, have a price.
We constantly hear people complain about nothing being made in the West anymore and it being outsourced to China/Mexico/India, but then when presented with products from both locations, buy China to save a few bucks? Pffft, absolutely! It's all talk.
We are completely screwed. China knows this. I'm not the only one out there who sees this.
You can absolutely still get quality, but you have to pay for it, which is starting to make it somewhat niche in certain segments at this point with respect to the "Walmartization" or perhaps, per a more recent thread "Dollar Generalization" of things.On another hand, the only way to catch upside amid all the downside of inequitable global trade is to try to save expenses.

The problem, in my eyes, is quality. Products are now often mere replicas of real products.
If you can get 2 sets of Chinese tires that have ok performance and last 40k for the same price as one set of michelins that last 60k, you save $ per mile buying the cheap tires. Most people don't care about traction as long as they aren't horrible.You can absolutely still get quality, but you have to pay for it, which is starting to make it somewhat niche in certain segments at this point with respect to the "Walmartization" or perhaps, per a more recent thread "Dollar Generalization" of things.
I fully appreciate that I'm farting against a hurricane of price-driven consumer behaviour that's predicated on consumption, but I make efforts to support Western manufacture of goods wherever possible. My new Michelin snows on the Jeep are made in Nova Scotia, Canada, for example. Tires are one area where we still have plenty of quality options from Western brands, with Western manufacture, but as evidenced by this thread, that doesn't mean the people that say they do, really give a crap about that if they can save a few bucks.
