    I've got a symmetrical tyre which is as stated exactly the same which ever way you put it but it still has a directional arrow on one side of the tyre the tyre guy put it on wrong and I rode it for around 10 mins and I've noticed slight cuts I will post a pic shortly is this from glass or because it's against rotation
