Okay - so it's nice out and I'm about to put my stock Conti's and the gold rims back on when I realize that the direction of the tread is different for the left and the right tires. The tires are all mounted properly with the "Outside" on the outside and the "Inside" on the inside. The picture below shows how the passenger wheel (on the left) would be spinning and all the tread is pointing towards the front of the car (bottom of the picture.) However the driver's side tire would be rolling with all the tread pointing rearward. There are no arrows on the sidewall showing the rolling direction so maybe it's okay, but this just seems weird to me. Thoughts?

They are not "directional" but there is one side of each tire that is supposed to be out.
