Default Tire chevron placement....

Scammell constructor semi, these were issued to the Royal Engineers
I notice that the way that the tires are installed on this Scammel, the point of the chevron hits the ground first in the forward motion....
I also noticed it in the previously posted Foden..
I was under the impression that the point of the chevron should hit the ground last for proper traction in mud or snow...as pictured in the FV 1201...
Any comments on the proper installation of chevron style tires..????
