I want to know if I can remount the tires so the lettering is on the inside (Not Visible)? I read somewhere that tires can be directional (made to only be used in one direction). Can someone with a bit more knowledge enlighten me?

Thanks,
RobG

They are not unidirectional. If they were, passenger side could not be swapped with driver side tires, and the other way around. If you were to only turn the driver side tires so the black walls were out, they would run the same direction as the passenger tires. Now the Michelin Hydro edge on our other car are definitely unidirectional...

You can do it.

I switch the direction in which my PAT's tires rotate so they will unwind.

I cannot do that with the tires on the C5, so it stays wound up.
