Interesting. The Boxster Spec racers that I know do it all of the time with their race tires. To them, its common practice.

Agreed, some Formula Ford racers swap around their slicks, or buy used tires, and I've never heard of a problem.

Damn, since the tires are directional and different sizes front and rear, you can't rotate the tires at all!

I didn't think about that until reading this thread!
