You're welcome :y

Bi directional perfectly safe, most firms do them, just be clear about your requirements when you get a tyre :y

Alot of tyres must be fitted one way round on the wheel and will have summat like 'this side out/outside' on the outer sidewall. Any tyre with that on it can be fitted in any position on the car.

Directional tyres will have an arrow marking the direction of rotation and can be fitted either way to the wheel, but are then sided on the car. They can be fitted to the 'wrong' side on a temporary basis, but not recommended as grip will become seriously compromised :-\
