I'm confused--the arrow seems to indicate which way the tire should roll and the tread is in a V pattern--I know you couldn't flip it so the open part of the V rolled forward, but don't see how going r to l would affect this ($40 for lifetime balance and rotation is just too big a draw to spend any appreciable time researching the issue).
