Question rotating tires - directional or non-directional?

Bought a 2008 Pilot, new. I have to rotate my tires. The rotation pattern depends on if my tires are 'Directional' or 'Non-Directional' tires, according to the owner's manual. Two 'experts' gave me opposite answers. The tires (came with the car, from the dealer) are Integrity's.

Thanks for any help,

Those crappy Integritys are non-directional meaning you can rotate them any which way you want. I would personally rotate them into the trash can and rotate in some better tires.

Can't go wrong with front to back / back to front. Works for all radial tires.

Humanoid is correct..... Integrities are not uni-directional. Tires that are have an arrow on the side that shows the direction the tire should rotate when traveling forward.
