I recently purchased a new set of wheels ( 18" Gianelle V-5's wrapped in Nitto Neo Gens tires). I didnt notice till now that the thread pattern on the tires different. In other words, the pattern on right side of the car is opposite from the left. However, I looked online and found that they are asymmetical non directional tire. Does anyone know does it make a difference?

I believe the neo gens was made for cars with negative cambers. The tires are unidirectional. If you dont have negative camber problems, then these tire are no good for you. You cant just rotate the tire on the right to left or vice versa.

This shouldn't be a problem as most perfomance tires are directional - you just need to rotate on one side every 5k to 10k miles (rebalnce also).

How do these tires handle, btw?
