Hi,

On a tire that is both Asymmetrical and Directional, how would they likely be marked for mounting ?

Just a simple arrow showing rotational direction ? (no Inside or Outside designations)

Or, the arrow for the correct rotational direction, AND the Inside or Outside designation on the sidewalls also ?

Or,... ?

Thanks, B.

If the tires are both A & D, then they should have both markings.

Also they can only be rotated front to back & back to front, assuming they are same size.

0^I I^0

Imagine moving these tires around, even if you take them off the rims.

They will be marked with both inside/outside and with a rotation arrow.
