Default I am pretty sure they are not handed.

I have never seen a picture of one facing the other way.

Your wheels are fine. I have a set on my 940 and at first, I thought I had odd wheels. Near side looked right. Off side looks like it's running backwards! But after looking at another car and checking pictures of advertised cars, they are all the same. Near side looks right, off side looks backwards.
Unless of course like you, I too have a set of near side wheels. LOL
