I have 2 Bridgestone HP550s on the front wheels of my Accord wagon.

They used to be on the back, but about a month ago I got 2 new Michelin Primacy MXV 4 on the rear wheels. Money is tight, so I didn't get them all replaced at once. The new tires went on the back, and the old Bridgestones moved to the front.
Since I had this done, the front tires make a very loud roar on the road, esp. at speeds over 35 mph.
Today, I just checked and there is a very small direction symbol on the side of the tire. The front pass side is showing the correct direction of rotation. The front driver side is showing the wrong direction.
Questions:
Is this is at least part of the reason for the load road noise?
Will a month of wrong rotation damage the tire?
Is the solution to have it remounted on the wheel the right way?
