Rotating tires/16x8 stock rims on '92 RS?

I have the stock 16x8 Z28/RS rims wrapped in 245/50/16 Sumitomo tires. I know the rims are offset differently for each axle. So, when rotating these tires I just want to make sure I have the right rims on the right axles. The inside of my rims have LF (left front), RF, RR (right rear), and LR on them. Question: Say I am looking to mount the right rear rim/tire...how is the right side of the car determined? Facing the car from the back or the front? Is it the passenger side or the driver side?

Left is driver's side, right is passenger's side.

Yep, and you can old trade sides when rotating wheels (fronts must stay in front, rears on rears, can't move a rear whell to the front because it rubs, etc.)

Then spell "retarded" the right way

Left and right doesn't matter for the wheels, but make sure the tires are on the correct sides if they are directional.
