Tyre direction and size
It depends on your application. If you want your front tyres to last well on the road then you want the outer ends of the chevron hitting the ground first. If you want you truck to perform well in the mud then you will want the center of the chrevron getting to ground first. this will have the effect of pushing the mud from under the tyre to the sides allowing the tyre to bite in the hard. I believe that if you check, you will find that during the various printings of CMP manuals, that both ways were recommended at different times of printing. The arguements here are as varied as the variations of usage, just like the rolling diameter of your 9.50x16 just might be as big as the rolling dia. of the 10.50x16 depending on manufacturer. for example I had three different Dunlop track grips That varied a lot ( a variety of run flat and non runflat, all 9.00x16,s)
