Where in Colchester, please, Lazydocker? I live about 20 miles from that town, so that's quite handy.

Ron.

as I said before I am yet to fit a tyre that have both arrows for direction and marked outside
I'm guessing you fit mostly budget tyres on eurotrash shitboxes?

We fit lots of different tyres ;)

As confirmed by tyre supplier I called this morning they're either or and NOT directional and assymetrical unless it's a Ferrari or similar:p

You know they exist, I know they exist, STEMO knows they exist - his own link said so.  I ain't wasting time looking around the Internet ;D

I don't think any of the tyres I have currently are directional, but they are probably assym. Too wet to look.  TBH, I think because of the stocking issues, esp when rubber was ridiculously priced, most mainstream directional tyres have fallen out of favour anyway.
