Stock rims in wrong placement?
As I understand it, the stock rims are designed such that the rears are to remain in the rear and likewise for the fronts. Correct?
Is it possible for a tire store kid to place the rears up front and the fronts in the rear? If so, how can I identify it?
Thanx

The hub sizes are different, but the fronts are designed to fit on either.
In the event of a flat in the rear, the owner's manual tells you to move a front to the rear and put the spare on the front to prevent damage to the differential.
That said, it's possible (but wrong) to put a rear on the front.
