Tire Rotation Help PLEASE

RE: Tire Rotation Help PLEASE
the nankang NS2 is a cheaply made tire and seem to always have uneven wear issues. they are made with a higher oil content than most tires which makes them perform less favorably in wet driving, also they have a tendency to be a harder tire and not offer very good grip.
I have never been a fan of nankang tires and would never put them on my own car. which is why my probe rocks out on Toyo proxes Fz4's

put it this way the v shaped tires are always mady to go in the direction of the vehicle moving forward, so the bottom of the V <___ should be going towards the front of your vehicle, look at my front tires (toyo proxes T1-S) the bottom of the v is pointing towards the front. hope this helps for furthar v shaped tire owners

Here is a picture of my left rear tire...
Should that be switched with the right rear tire?
MK2 said they should be, but I'm not sure why, thanks for letting me know though.
Please let me know why they should be switched

Late on the thread, but those are definitely directional and definitely backwards. Instead of channeling water away from the tire, that would tend to bunch it up. Works on the same principle as an agricultural tire pulling in the dirt. Be real careful around puddles until you get it switched. I just put H rated BF Goodrich Traction TA's on mine. The tread pattern is not nearly as obvious as your's but the Traction TA's (H & V rated) are directional also. The grip great when put on right, hopefully yours will too.
