Default Question about Dunlop Elite 3 tires...

I received my new E3s from Dennis Kirk yesterday and have what may be a stupid question. On the rear tire the mold mark is right around the center of the tire but on the front one the mold mark (seam) is way off to one side. Is this normal or do I have a defective tire. Maybe one of you noticed this when you installed yours. I hate to install it and find out it is defective.

Thanks,
Jim

Cool

That is normal and when you mount the front tire it will seem backwards.
