I have seen front tires run both ways- V running to the front of to the back.
I know with rear tires the V should be pointing forward for hard surfaces/ backwards for soft surfaces.

Is there also a difference for the front tire?
In question is my ITP Holeshot HD tires on front.

Thanks!

i have razr 2's on the front of my quad and they have a "V" pattern too. i like to run mine with the point facing back towards me. IMO in bites alot harder in corners. tyhe only thing i sacrifice is braking control. when i nail the front brakes it get a bit squirlly, it would probably be just the opposite if i turned them around.
