Default Directional And Asymmetrical Tire Designation(s)

Hi,

On a tire that is both Asymmetrical and Directional, how would they
likely be marked for mounting ?

Just a simple arrow showing rotational direction ?
(no Inside or Outside designations)

Or, the arrow for the correct rotational direction, AND the
Inside or Outside designation on the sidewalls also ?

Or,... ?

Thanks,
B.

If the tires are both A & D, then they should have both markings.

Also they can only be rotated front to back & back to front, assuming
they are same size.

Imagine moving these tires around, even if you take them off the rims.
