I feel like a newb asking this, but I'm pretty sure the labels are misprinted on my Conti tires so it's really confusing. The label has <-Front Rear -> on one side but on the other side it has the same label in the same orientation. I would have expected it to read <-Rear Front-> to be consistent.
Now I normally place the front tire with the chevrons rotating with the wheel and the rear with the chevrons against the rotation for extra traction. This tire has tread blocks going every which way so it's not as straight forward.
The other complication is that I'm going to be doing a mix of road/gravel/dirt so maybe I don't need/want the extra traction (rolling resistance) on the rear.
Thoughts?
