How to Put On tires.

I got a set of new wheels on my car. Now my old tire are just all stock-up and I don't know which ones go on the right and which ones go on the left. I need to know cause I'll be putting them on another civic but have no clue wich one go where.
How can I find out where/how to put them?

If the tires are directional, there should be an arrow on the side of the tire that points the way the tire should rotate. If there is no arrow, then the tread pattern as seen from the top of the tire should point to the front.

Yes I try looking for those signs but cant find them. BTW These are the same as the stock ones. I beleive that half of the tread is pointing foward and the other is pointing back. I belive the outside of the tire the tread is pointed foward and the inside is pointing backwards.

Anyone else.

If they are the stock tires, they are unidirectional, so it dosn't matter which side they go on.

If the tires are aftermarket, post what brand and model number and we'll go from there. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
