Just got a pair of these and like them already.

Thing is they are a bit vague as to direction of mounting. It appears that they are both meant to go on in the same orientation for front and rear, but eh "drive" arrow thingie ont he sidewall seems to me to be the "wrong way round" as compared to other similar treads ( eg High Rollers).

Does anyone know which way round for front and rear gives optimum performance? I see that Mike's article on them pictures a front-mounted tyre in the same direction as I have mounted mine on the front - ie in the opposite direction to the "drive" arrow.....
