Don't make the mistake I made. I put my M2 tires on today.

It took me forever but when I was finished, I was very proud of myself; I had remembered not to pinch the brake cable in the back, I remembered to put ant-seize compound on the "hubs," and everything seemed to have gone smoothly.
As I was putting the last of those little plastic caps on the lug nuts, I happened to noticed the direction arrow on that tire- it was facing the wrong way! AAAUUUGGGGHHH!!!!!!!!
Fortunately I had only put two tire/wheels on incorrectly, so after I finished cursing, I didn't have that much extra worhk to do.
BTW, I bought and installed a set of McGuard locking lugnuts, but the plastic cap won't fit over them. I have those plastic caps on the other 4 lug nuts each tire, but the McGuard lug nut is "capless." Will that upset the balance of each wheel or is that missing weight inconsequential?
Thanks.
