Reverse LSi right and left

I have 2 x LSi15 and before I purchased them I did not really pay attention to the "sub" on the side of them. Due to my room configuration I have placed my front left and right all the way out to the sides of the room close to the wall angled in toward the center, but when I received the 15s I realized that they point the sub driver out which would be directly at a wall.
Polk claims that the off centered tweeter is done on purpose, so the question is what is likely to sound worse? A sub pointed at a wall ( although alot of the base goes to the subwoofer) or the tweeters reversed?

My situation is worse than yours - I have an irregular room that is closed on one side and open on the other (loft). Consequence: I have two LSi15s with woofers facing the wall (front left and rear left) and two LSi15s with woofers facing open (right sides front and rear).
This has resulted in exaggerated sound from the left side, but can be managed by fine-tuning the receiver channels.
In your case, I think the most simple answer is likely the best: experiment for yourself. You may prefer one set-up over the other.Do you hear that buzzing noise?
