camber wear...can I swap tires?
I have some camber wear on the inside of my rear tires. I'm wondering if I can have a shop put my right tire on the left wheel and the left tire on the right wheel. That way, the less worn sides of the tires will be on the inside. Is this a good move to extend tire wear? Will it cause problems?

If you have directional tread you can't do it. I vaguely recall that even if you don't that it may not be advisable to have the tires travel in the opposite direction they have been running in.

No they won't be going the same direction if you swap the front wheels unless you take the tires off the wheels!!!

That was his question in his first post. He asked if he can take the tire off of the wheel and switch them.
