pirelli pzero nero M&S owners, step in please!

I needa ya guys to do a favor...could you possibly take a shot of the tire's tread on the PASSENGER side of the vehicle...either front or rear tire is fine...but it would be easier for the front..since you can turn the steering wheel...and get a better camera shot..

reason why i'm asking is...i have a feeling mine are uninstalled incorrectly...so please, take a picture of the tread on the PASSENGER side...thanks!



here, i got a shot earlier today...does your passenger look like this??

why do you think theyre installed incorrectly. If you take the wheel off and look at both sides of the tire, you will notice that the font is different on each side;i.e. Pirelli is small block letters for the inside tire wall and in cursive for the outside tire wall. When I first got mine installed over 35K miles ago, I thought they were installed incorrectly because of the way the curves on the side of the threads were, but realized they were correct. How about you post a pic?

Are these directional? Do you have a marking that says "rotation ->"?

i dunno if they are directional...the tread design for these tires are weird...but no, they don't have an arrow or whatever that points which way is right...

I had these tires on my old MM EVO's. (Now 97Whtse has them) They are NOT directional. Mount them any which way. I know... the tread pattern actually had me confused a while back too.
