Does anybody unmount the fronts (and/or rears) and move them to the other side to gain some extra life out of the tire? I guess that wouldn't for tires that have an asymmetric "inside" and "outside" tread, but if you had a symmetric tread (and/or directional? a quick check of Tire rack shows that all of the Extreme summer performance tires are either asymmetric or directional) then could you swap them side-to-side? Or does the expense of making such a swap negate any extended usage received.

Does anyone do this?

Thanks,

Steve
