Default trap for young players

Since I had my new coopers fitted I have had a rumbing noise getting worse on the passenger side of the car and it was starting to pull to the left took it in to the draler today to have my chassis cracks looked at by the experts from brisbane and both front seats looked at as the squabs have collapsed the Mechanic at Armstrongs in Toowoomba is very good checked the noise and it turn out the tyre fitters had put the left hand tyres on with the tread angle facing the wrong way causing the tyres on that side to ramp up causing the noise I guess a certain tyre fitter is going to get his fingers smacked

I'm confused, how do you put them on the wrong way unless they are directional, what tyre is it? I didn't think the Coopers were directional.

Cheers
Steve

The white writing on the tyre wall goes on the outside.
And the tyres only come in left hand and right hand tyres in QLD.

Sorry guys if this was hard to read I was tooo tired when I wrote it. the thread is about direction of tread pattern even thought the tyres are not marked the angle of the tread is directional if you look at it.

What a pain, why would they bother, it kinda limits the life of the tyres as a set when you cant include the spare in the rotation. Must remember not to get QLD Coopers

Cheers
