^Correct. They are asymmetrical, but not unidirectional.

Thanx for the info guys. I'm glad to hear that I'll be able to rotate them.

Just to be clear, you can flip them from side to side, but you cannot rotate them forward and back, as the fronts and rears are different sizes.

correct, since its different sizes front and rear with the sport package.

18" x 8.0" (front) and 18" x 9.0" (rear) 5-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels
19" x 9.0" (front) and 19" x 10.0" (rear) 5-spoke RAYS® super-lightweight forged alloy wheels

Non-sports are side to side only, also.
