Default Stupid tire question?

I have toyo proxes z4 that have directional tread. I just put them on (my 17" Enkeis for summer) with the directional tread forward (arrows pointing forward). I just noticed that when I drive they make a humming sound. My friend said I pit them on wrong that the tread should point back. I know that is wrong, right?

You have them on right. I have the same tires. They suck my ***. They follow every groove in the road and make crazy noises. On the plus side, they last forevAr. I can't seem to smoke these things off my rims. My back tires are still like new after like 10,000 miles.

Yeah but they feel like you are steering large blocks. I used to have Nitto tires on my Prelude I sold and those tires kicked ***. I might go back to Nitto
