Time for the really smart guys to reply
This has been bothering me, ever since they introduced the asymmetric tires. I always assumed that the tread patterns were developed for max grip, wear, water expulsion, etc. Then how come the tread is reversed on the other side? Which side is giving the best grip? This is one reason why I like the Hancook EVO's. So let's hear from those knowledgeable about tires.
