Default Quick question about swapping tires from side to side.

My rear tires are shot but my fronts have really good tread on them minus the insides with nasty camber, caster, and toe wear.

I was talking to a couple of shops locally, but I wont let them touch my SSR's.
Would if be feasible for you guys to swap the tires side to side so the wear is on the outside? Or do you not recommend that?

I need to get it aligned and put new rear tires on, but the car will be sitting and barely driven after that. I would get new fronts, but it would be a waste.


Let me know! They are Kumho's 225/40/18 on an 18x8.5 rim.

Thanks
