Default Are Pirelli's Unidirectional?

I got my new pirielli tires today (assimetrico (sp?)) and they don't have arrows on them indicating a direction ...

Any ideas? Or does it not matter?

If there are no markings, it might not matter. You might want to check out there web site, you might find some info there.

What do you mean exactly?

There was nothing on them that had an arrow or a "rotate this way" notation

They are asymmetrical (Asimmetrico) tires meaning that they have an inside and outside.



The left side of the picture should be towards the outside on the wheels.

They are either going to have a marking...

1- saying they should be mounted with this side inside
2- or they are going to have a directional marking


If neither, they can be mounted either way. Who ever mounts them for you, will take care of it.
