HELP!

Are your tyres directional?? Do all the directional arrows located on the side walls of the tyres point to the front of car??

Could you all just pop outside and have a quick look for me pleaseeeeeee...
As I think I have brought 4 Left handed tyres if their is such a thing. As the directional arrows (what I think are directional) only point to the front if the tyres are all positioned on the left(The word "outer" is also to the outside)

Thankyou in advance!!!

they are not arrows on the pzero neros, just part of the tread pattern. As long as you have outer on the outside of the wheel you are fine.

If you position the 4 tyres as per the foot print of the car with the word "outer" to the outside of each tyre in each corner, the tread pattern isn't assymetrical?? Are you definitley sure these tyres arn't directional??

Thanks

I think they are as the tyres (Bridgestone RE040) fitted to the STI 8 standard alloys are definitely directional..

i did'nt say that they were not directional. The pzero neros are! I presume that this is what make of tyre you are talking about as that is what comes on the WR1 18's

Sorry for the confusion, i'm talking about the 225/40 ZR18 (92Y) Pirelli PZero Nero tyres fitted to the PFF7 alloys. Do these have directional arrows on the side wall??

NO! just the word outer. if this is on the outer of the wheel all is right. If not, get them swopped

Sorry for all the questions mate, but if you position the 4 tyres as per the car, the tread pattern is odd/not assymetrical. The two parts of the tread pattern that go the same way are on the inside on the left but outside on the right.
