What do you mean by flip? Demount, switch & remount?

demount, flip tire, mount to wheel

So you can put the worn inside of tire to outside of wheel.

No. It would still be in the right direction.

It depends if they are directional or symmetrical.

It would work with toyo t1r but not with azenis rt615. It would work with directional, symmetrical. Not a with a biased tire like azenis because they can only be mounted one way. The azenis labels the outside of the tire.

yeah, will... i know that. but i believe what dustin was saying... was that you could demount, flip the tire, then remount on the same wheel.

i thought thats the only way you could do it.. swap from passenger side to drivers side and vice versa. or else the tire would be on backwards? idk. i guess i'd have to actually see it to understand.

nah who cares. You were correct too. It can be done that way too. It's the same thing just without swapping the tires to the other wheel.

well what i'm trying to figure out... is if you were to just flip the toyo's they would be on backwards... b/c they're rotational, correct?
