Hi, hope someone can give me quick clarification.
Should the Michelin Pilot road tyres be directional??
I have bourght set of CSL alloys & tyres from Quarry and looking tonight at the tyres there tread patterns are the same when faces of alloys face same way and with no directional arrows. So when you imagine wheel on both sides of car the tread pattern is reversed which means they will dispell water in opposite direction on one side to the other and this looks wrong to me, but being non-techno thourght some of you will advise.
Hope this makes some sense.

No.

They have an outer side wall though.

Yes they do state "outside" face but my confusion was the actual tread pattern will be opposite on both wheels either side of the car front & back but assume this be OK then??

Yep, that is how they are, noting to worry about.
