mounting a tire backwards

[mauser72]

Ok this may be a bad idea but ive got a set of supercorsa sp's that have only seen one trackday at hpr but the right side of the rear is pretty hammered. My question is are they directional only because of tread pattern for water displacement or is the carcass designed for load in a certain direction it would be nice if I could mount it backwards and get more life out of it? Anyone ever do this and get away with it or should I just not risk it. I get it a 300$ tire is much cheaper than dropping my duc

I flip mine all the time, I am running slicks now but I did it with DOT's also.

Yeah I figured it might be ok due to the pirelli having a zero degree belt design I just wanted to hear someone say theyve done it thanks bueller

I have had some of my racers win races on "flipped" supercorsas all the time. You will be fine with a SP going on the direction opposing arrow.
