Overall good;got new wheel's & have the Invo's...quieter & i can rotate.
if you don't mind me asking, why did you have to rotate them side to side? Were you getting uneven wear due to the camber?

nope, it's the normal heel/toe wear of a tread block,,,over a long run-the front of the block will raise up & they will straighten back out when reversed or rotated.
That's about the only thing about directional tires....i guess you could run them backwards for a bit...but i'll see if i can dig up some pic's.

10,398mi. L/F tire
Notice how the treadblock is raised in the front,,,very little; but corrected on a tire that can be run the opposite direction.
Pics are of L/F outer & inner and then tread vs. one of the rear's. Good tire & wasn't noisy-but when this wear gets worse over time-that's when you get some noise.
