Edited to add, i cannot believe you only check your tyre pressures once a month at best!
I do mine once a week and the snow was the only thing that stopped me recently from doing it. I am paranoid, but after all, those 4 bits of rubber are the only things keeping you on the road.
They are NOT directional. If you look on the inner wall you will see an instruction saying that, that wall must be the inner one and there is an arrow showing both directions on the outer wall. Therefore, any wheel can go on any corner! They look odd when they're on as the tread direction is different nearside to offside! It works, though.

According to Vreddy these are asymmetrical (although it looks weird) as per this link Vredestein

I was just checking with Vreddy users that this is right (cos it does look really really weird), I'm sure I'll get quizzed by the fitters!!!

Thanks for the confirmation JohnD, feel more comfortable now thats sorted

Yes, the thing that threw me was you saying they can't be rotated. I took it as the regular swopping of wheels front to back and/or diagonally!

So just to put this to bed.
The tyres are NOT directional which means once fitted correctly to the wheel the wheel can be rotated onto any corner?
So one mounted front front right can be swapped with the rear left.
