Default tire rotation

bough new shoes and i rotated the tires a week ago and today i noticed that the drivers front and rear , the tire, the arrow doesn't go the direction the car is going.
the passengers front and rear , the arrow is pointing forward and thats the correct position if im not wrong

Go back to the shop and complain, they shouldnt have rotated your wheels from one side to another without 1.) consulting you, and 2.) why did they not check to see if the treads were uni-directional or not.

no the thing is i rotated the tired myself. its not a honda tho. tires from front go back. and the back ones cross and go to the front. its just that i noticed today the problem! is that bad tho . Im trying to figure out how the tires pointed before rotating them and i think they still were wrong. i installed the shoes about 2-3 months back tho i dubt they will take the tires of and put them on the right way for free

Hahaha. Whatever shop put those tires on sucks... Take that **** back to them and have them re-mount and balance the one side. That is, unless you like driving in reverse with the wheel cranked That bitch will handle like no other!!!

That's a full on rookie mistake. I wouldn't have any service work done there if I were you. If they give you ****, even if you have your paperwork, take your vehicle elsewhere.
