there made to be ran the right way if you look at them and just visualise mud going through them you would see that if you run the back wards that the lugs would let it slide around b.c its rounded but the right way its like a scoop and will bite......

Well......it looks like they are backwards if he said "front of buggy" so that means to me that they are the opposite than the way I mounted them. It looks like the first picture, but the picture I provided shows "rear of buggy".
