Mine have the word "Outside" printed on the outward side, and "Inside" printed on the inward side. Its right next to the Azenis lettering, in pretty large lettering.

you can rotate them anyway way you like, just don't flip the tire on the wheel - keep "outside" on the outside. azenis are assymetrical but not directional.
