Yeah there is. Even if they know that wheels are directional,

a) they think they know better (I have argued more then enough times and explained to them about directional tyres and rims and which is which).

b) they don't care. (Even after I've explained to them what I wanted to do, they often (75%) will do what they normally do -- in which case, they have to take it off and put it back where it belong because I am not going to leave and pay them unless they do it right).

c) They get paid at 8 bucks an hour and they have better things to do.
