I am struggling to ascertain which way the wheels are mounted? It is stated that they must be mounted in a cetain pattern (presume due to tyre tread pattern?)The instructions give a pictureof how to mount the tyres on the rims - and the left front and rear are shown - the tyres on mine were already fixed on arrival.
Unfortunalety the picture in the manual is unclear as to the tyre pattern and is shown mirror fashion wiht the left tyre shown as if on the right!
Sorry for posting this elsewhere in the wrong place.
So which wheels go where, please?

Re: Wheels and tyres
The tyres may well be on the wheels when the kit arrives but they are not glued on, or rather mine were not glued on when the kit landed.
I don't think the tread is a directional pattern so it wouldn't matter which way they were fitted to the rims.
I'll watch with interest for if anyone comes up with an alternate suggestion for tyre fitment.
