Are these tires installed in correct directions and side?

The thread looks to me non-directional, other words, bi-directional.
Usually if the thread is mirrored from the circumferential center line, it's a directional tire. If the thread is 180 deg rotate-match along center line, it's a non-directional tire. Just 2 cents. What brand and model of tire you got?

Looks correct to me. Tires are not directional nor asymmetric tires (inside/outside tread pattern) so you can mount them any direction.

If you have directional tires...there will be ARROWS on the sidewall that indicate the direction the tire should be rotating when moving forward. Or the tire will indicate "this side out" or "this side in:
