Are Wildgrippers reversable....

As in, can you run fronts on the rear if you reverse them so tread pattern is non directional......... :?: :?: :?:

Wouldnt have thought so :?
Personally, I use a pair of rears on my RTS with great success

Well i was going to say they don't work too well inside out....

Depends which ones you are talking about most I own (XL S, Jet S etc) have can be run front or rear with the markings to tell you which way to run if on the front or rear. The exception being a "Front S" which the packaging said front only, but I doubt it would be that bad on the rear.

Which tyre are you thinking of using?

A lucky dip then

I have a few pairs of the green wildgrippers and the front and rear tread patterns are exactly the same. The tyres have a rotational aroow on them for front or rear. Basically the rear is just the reverse of the front.

Must be different with yellow ones that I have. They have REAR printed on them, as well as a . I also think the grip may be slightly different, as Ed offered me a pair of his yellow ones and I sware the front and rears were different.... :?:

You can fit them anyway you wish, experiment, you may be suprised. BITD I used to run a Conti Leader Pro (strictly front use only according to Conti tech) front & rear for dry dusty races. The guys at Conti were gobsmacked, said it would not work. Then they came out with semi-slicks a year or so later.

Think this shows clearly the difference in tread pattern on the amber coloured ones
