Spot the mistake!

Wonder if the owner knows his rear Michelin's are on backwards (rotating the wrong way)!

Maybe he likes to drive REALLY fast in reverse?!?!?

when mounted correctly, the tyres evacuate water...

i was wondering if they would accumulate the water under the car when mounted in the wrong way ?

the answer seems to be: YES !

...if you know the owner it would be good to tell him

unless it is a special setup for drifting...

I have been told that fitting directional tyres on the wrong way results in whole tyre tread area breaking down at high speed, so it just unrolls of the tyre ,

not sure if this is true but sounds like bad news to me

If you put them on backwards they work better in the snow, honest!

Maybe hes getting ready for winter driving?
