    Considering they're 3 different sizes and directional. You may have to make them into Tire Swans and sell them as yard art :)

    Directional means NOTHING ...... they can still be mounted on the left or right side :rolleyes: (these were on the r/h side, I pounded the l/h ones into oblivion)

    These were incredibly grippy but were unavailable when I needed them so I had to go to another brand of tyre :(

    These are dirt cheap for anyone in a similar situation OR someone who wants to buy one new tyre to have a pair of tyres for PEANUTS :cool:

    Oh, I understood tires to have an inside and outside ( I know some tires are marked as such) edge so they could only be mounted on a wheel one way, thus a directional tread would stop them from being put on the opposite side of a car as they would face the wrong way.

    You’re confusing asymmetric and directional tyres.

    Asymmetric tyres have a different tread pattern on each side of the tyre and the sidewalls are marked as Inside and Outside (eg Falken RT615) These tyres can rotate in either direction

    Directional tyres usually have a V shaped tread pattern, (usually to enhance water disbursement), and the sidewalls are marked with a directional arrow (eg Toyo Proxes R1R) These tyres can only rotate in one direction

    Please note : Asymmetric tyres and Directional tyres can be used on both sides of a vehicle as long as they are mounted on the wheel in accordance with the sidewall markings :cool:
