I got a pair of Tufo thundero 40 for my Giant Revolt 2. I'm replacing the stock tires. I've been nervous to do it since it will be my first time. Current tires are already tubeless set up from LBS.
I finally worked up the courage to do it and I noticed the tires doesn't have a direction marker on it. I dont know which way to install it. To my eye, it looks symmetrical.
Please advise which direction

Not a directional tire.
Yeah the direction doesn’t matter on every single tire, if there’s no indicator, I usually will just try to put it on I’m a way that looks like water would easily pass through the treads while the tire is spinning.
If there is a direction indicator, it usually means the tire will wear out faster if put on backwards and maybe have slightly more rolling resistance.
