    Bfgoodrich KM3

    I just got bfg km3 on my D2 today and realised they put the outside wall thread of the right side and left sides tyres are on different direction.

    I know KM3 is uni directional tyres.

    Does it matter the way they put them in term of performance or just looks a bit weird/different?

    Thanks
    Gus

    If there a non-directional tyre (which a quick Google search indicates they are) then they'll run either way just as well.

    Is one of the sidewalls market as 'outter' and the other 'inner' (or other such wording?)? If so I would suggest returning and having the ones with inners facing out swapped around. If they're specified as such then there's likely a reason in their design such as a stronger sidewall on the outer of the 'armour' side walls lugs etc.

    Do they have white lettering,or has this been deleted on the new model?

    Usually white goes on all four tyres either on the outside or inside,whatever you prefer.
