After a recent spate of punctures, I invested in a pair of marathon pluses which I put on the bike over the weekend. Before I put them on, I looked to see if there was any indication on the sidewall of how they should be put on but couldn't see anything and just fitted them anyway.
On my ride yesterday morning, I noticed that the tread seemed to be facing backwards and on looking again, I could see a direction arrow on the sidewall which showed that I'd put both tyres on backwards.
I'm probably going to change them to the right way around over the next day or two but I wonder if anyone knows what difference it would make if I didn't. Would I face some dire consequence just for having two bike tyres on the wrong way around?
