Even something with a relatively simple tread pattern like the PSS if you take it from one side where the grooves are 'aiming' forward (which I think is typical) and turn it over the the opposite side of the car the inside/outside will still be correct obviously but those grooves will now be aiming backwards.

Maybe that doesn't make a difference and I'm overthinking it though.. but to me that has to affect performance.
