No - rotationals can be on either side of the car so long as they rotate the correct way.

Now thats not quite the point you were trying to make last time

You tried saying that a directional tyre would only go on one side of the car

No I was saying a tyre that is designed for the left side cannot be put on the right side without weirdness.

OK last time sand-eel

A directional tyre will go on any wheel on the car,

A sided tyre will go on any wheel on the car

An asymetrical & directional tyre will only go on one side

Asymetrical & directional = Uber rare.

Now stfu!!
