If the tread is directional, the tire is directional.

If they tread faces opposite ways, that's your problem. Whoever mounted them, mounted them wrong.

Check all 4 corners, you may be lucky and you have them swapped on opposite corners. Otherwise, if not, the only solution to that is to pull the tire off the rim and remount it.

There will be a tiny arrow indicating direction of rotation , but it may be on the inboard side if the tire is backwards.
