I would have it corrected and probably never go back to that place again.

If it's directional and it was mine I'd want it to be mounted the correct way....I know some are running a rear M/C tire mounted assbackwards on the front that's not for me either . |

Priciate it. Yea they called and wanted to make sure they put it on right. I told them the same direction as the old one. They said my new tire had no arrow. I told them it has one on it because I've seen it. .. oh whell, I guess I'll have to do it again

If'n they need an arrow,,,  I'd guess they couldn't find their a$$ with both hands super glued to it. Come to think of it, maybe that's where their head is stuck   |

This may or may not help some folks here. Before i took the wheels off my i/s i cut some arrows out of black electrical tape and made sure they were pointing in the correct/proper direction. I then highlighted the arrows on the tires BEFORE i went to have the tires r and rd. Plus the shop owner didn't have a problem with me observing the work after i had asked. Kinda like preventive maintenance. RIDE SAFE. |
