New Tires
 

Could not find a thread on this..

I bought new back tires for my car.. and it doesnt matter what kind, but just in case someone decides to ask, I bought the same brand that came with the car. Yokohama 285/35 zr19

Anyway, I was watching them take the tires off the rim. On the inside of the RIM where the tire sat, there was a stamp with the Letter "R" on it. I assume that means Right side?

But Why would it matter what side the rim is put on? Or does it? I couldnt tell if they even paid attention to that or not.. Does anyone know?

thanks

I believe the R stands for rear since we have staggered stance.

OMG.. I didnt even think of that!! LOL.. i feel dumb.. I knew it shouldnt matter what side they go one.. please forget I even asked.

maybe you should just delete this thread before more people see it lol :tiphat:

Too late... I saw it... R stands for Rice.:tiphat::p

not on the tire, the WHEEL, or RIM.. which ever you want to call it.

HAHA.. I enjoy a good laugh even if its me we are laughing at...
