i no they have a rotational direction on them but it looks to me they would get more grip off road if you ran them againt rotation
has anyone done this and how much better/worse are they
would only do this off road and would change before i drove on road again

i think they would work better on rocks etc... but as soon as you went in the mud they would clog up a the mud would go toward the centre and not clean out the sides as it is designed to

Ditto for water on the road when its wet, which is good if WANT to aquaplane.

when i do comps.... i run my rear 2 backwards and leave my front 2 forwards..... less stress on cvs up front and they grip better on rock reversed... but as said worse in the mud or wet.

doesn't work as well on radial claws.. preferred method for bias

i used to run all of my radial claws backwards and they worked so much better than the right direction.
