WRX Front Rim Directional ?

Subject: WRX Front Rim Directional ? Wed Mar 10, 2010 8:28 am

Could someone with a WR250X verify if the OEM front rim (not the tire) has a directional arrow stamped on the side where the DID is stamped ? If so, does it actually correspond to the proper rotation of the rim when installed correctly ?

Thanks!

Just checked my wheels, YES, X front wheels have the directional arrow and it does point in the correct direction. WRX Front Rim Directional ? 93746

Hey superbee, sorry about that! Thanks a bunch for replying to my question earlier.

No issues with the Shinko 705's; hope they serve you well. What I was referring to was the directional arrow on the front rim.
