So that simply means that directional or not you SHOULD put them back on GOING IN THE SAME DIRECTION OF TRAVEL.

So if you are cheap front to back and back to front SAME SIDE ONLY. Or send the money and have the tires dismounted from the rims and x rotated then put back on the rims and balanced going in the same direction but with the inside now out.
