Thanks all for the comments. The rear tires are 295/30/R18. They look small because of the size of the sidewall.

The tires are installed correctly with the "rotation arrow" pointing forward.

If you have no way to get all the tires facing the right way then whoever mounted them, mounted them incorrectly. If you mount them wrong, then will not both point the same way regardless of which rim is on what part of the car.

agreed.
There's no way that tire is faceing the right way.
No biggie....just take it back to where they got mounted and have them fix it.

Wrong, he should have 2 tires with DOT out, and two with DOT in.

Kinda backwards.. if they are directional then you will have one side with DOT's in and the other with DOT's out. Non directional, you'd opt for DOT's in to protect the #'s from curbs etc.

This mustangmods.com place is broken, their DNS seems to be setup wrong.

My local DNS server don't have any NS or A records for mustangmods.com, but if I point DNS right at where this site is hosted it does, so their DNS updates or something is screwed up.

You can put an entry for 67.15.78.83 to www.mustangmods.com in your HOSTS file and it'll work.

> set type=NS
> mustangmods.com
Server: dns-cac-lb-01.tampabay.rr.com
Address: 65.32.5.74

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Request to dns-cac-lb-01.tampabay.rr.com timed-out

I really don't see what the confusion on these tires is.
