I concur with Jack,

The tread on both tyres should look V-shaped when viewed from the front, and
A-shaped when viewed from the rear, as the apex of the V or A should hit the
road first, to squeeze water outwards as the tyre moves forwards. CHECK YOUR
DIRECTION ARROWS.

Jonaz, please report back if we're wrong!
