Default Tires...tyres...tired....

Hey Alex.....

Picture only shows two tires..... the other two are mounted the other way.... helps to get out of a mud hole frontwards or backwards.....

Honestly, after reading all the MLU postings and re-reading the various shop manuals which by the way changes from early to later in the war, I opted for the same direction as on the farm tractor...... which is suppose to ride smoother and incur less wear....... next time I rotate them ...say in 5 years or 5,000 miles.... I may orient them differently just to get comments from the other half of MLU.

PS.. We are still using our own barn designed invention to seat those tires on the CMP rims that are not supposed to accept USA tires bead design........ having some tire shop snoothy lub does help. tremendously.
