Default Bridgestone RE-11 Tyres

Hi Guys,

Is anyone using these tyres? does anyone know if they're directional in terms of rotation? tyre pattern looks like they're directional, however the tyre wall itself doesn't seems to have that arrow pointing at the direction its meant to rotate.

Cheers
Ken

after a quick Google search it seems that the Potenza RE-11 is a uni-directional tyre

they are apparently on par with advan neova's, with much better thread wear than the neovas. they are priced very well on tirerack.com

thought so, it was abit confusing because you'd have different tread pattern between the left and the right if they're uni directional, so i was thinking how evenly the water will ge disperse between the left and the right in the wet. I did get a confirmation from tirerack saying they're uni directional. thankyou for the comments guys. even spending time to google, appreciated.
