Really?
Since I have had them on the front for only two days, I can't speak with a ton of experience about the tracking issue.
We have a highway near home that is rutted-up from truck traffic. My factory 275x40x17 tires track poorly there and I need to fight the car to keep it straight. When I drove it this weekend with the 315s x 4, it tracked better than the old tires.
Maybe it was only wishful thinking. I don't think it was any worse, however.

...not sure about the mounting in the front; is the Verdestien stripe on the tire supposed to be on the inside or outside?
I don't believe these tires are directional; right?
I'm confused about the center caps too. These get pushed off the rear wheel when the rear tire is mounted. I assume I need a different center cap since the rear hub is cut so it fits inside the wheel.

[QUOTE=95CameronHawk;8491041]Vredesteins are asymetrical, but not directional from the reviews that I have read.
that is correct......pirelli's are the same way
on the tracking issue....thats great news.....i had to fight my 275/40/17's also.....i just thought that the bigger you went up front the worse it got....

True. They are mounted correctly dont worry. There wont be an arrow rather a "inside/outside" is some from of text (usually printed on the inside w/ Mount this side in). I am assuming that the 275's you had on there were probly low on pressure and not having the 315's on long enough you have had any issues. If you want to have some fun lower them to 25ish lbs and drive that road you mentioned.
