The rotation of the lift posts is towards the rear of the vehicle. 
There are probably vehicles that go on backwards.  And depending on
the lift and the vehcile being lifted, it might not matter, as long as
the car is lifted from the correct points.

Rotary lifts come with a nifty dish that gets attached to the floor. 
Depending on the wheel base of the vehicle, the front tire is position
in front of, on, or forward of the dish.  There may be something
similar available for your lift.
