That tire is the V12 Evo 2, is it? I see the rotational direction indicator there so it must be a directional tire which is the V12 for Hankook. For directional tire, you just need to follow that rotation indicator. Now the manufacturing year is often only printed on 1 side, hence that's why you cannot see it on the driver side after installation as it will be in the inside.

Yes you are correct for the tyre model.. Meaning the 2 that do not have date should be in left or either right, and must not front have rear don't have or vice versa rite?

v12 is directional/rotational tyre.if follow the direction the date of two tyres are facing outwards and another two will be facing inwards.

Later I will double check.. Thanks

You averted possible accidents, good for you! I think it makes sense for all manufacturers to indicate outside/inside for this kind of tyres

bro. its directional tyre, they cant put outside inside.
Because each tyre can put either 1 of the 4 place.
