You're right.

This was what I was thinking:

Wheels that have spokes spinning clockwise when viewed on the right side, will appear to spin counter-clockwise when viewed from the left side.

But, I forgot that a wheel can only be installed one way, so when mounted on a car, can only be viewed one way. A clockwise spoke wheel on the right side of the car, will still be a clokwise spoke wheel when mounted on the left side of the car because the wheel needs to be flipped over.

So, they have two different wheel designs for the same car (clockwise and counter-clockwise) Isn't that a bit unusual?
