Directional? Really...?
So, my front tires are getting pretty dicey. I was going to swap sides because I'm getting abnormal wear. Just to get another month or two out of them. So...swapping sides is a great idea! Since I can't rotate them.
So I get out there. Take the wheels off...clean up the shocks and springs and inside the wheels. I swap them. Drop it down. Tighten 'em up. And as I'm cleaning the fingerprints off the wheels....I realize the tires are directional. FML....smh... Needless to say...I'll be buying front tires real soon. Gotta wait til next paycheck.
So, the moral of the story is...if you buy staggered wheels, DON'T buy directional tires! hahaha....

Oh...I need an alignment.
