    Folks,

    Today I switched out the winters and when putting the OEM Yokos on, couldn't figure out the direction they should go in. Are these directional tires (meaning they should only rotate in one direction) and if so, how can I figure out the direction? I didn't find an arrow or wording indicating the direction on the side wall.

    Thanks.

    The Avid S33D's are not directional tires. I had these as the original OEM's. They can be placed anywhere you like.
