Some of us do.
If you are on the S-02s they have to be oumounted, flipped around on the wheel and remounted in order to move the left tire to the right side and still keep the tire going in the right direction.

Nope.
1. You can't put them on the front because of the size difference.
2. Our tires are directional.
You could swap sides but you'd need to have them de-mounted and re-mounted on the opposite rim.

You can NOT do a standard tire rotation on an S2000. The front wheels are a different size than the rear wheels. Rotating the rear tires to the front has caused wheel stud breakage because the fit of the rears on the front hubs is NOT exact and vice versa.

Above replies are correct. I was working with the assumption that S2000ofSC was asking about a side to side rotation because obviously with such dramatic differences in size you can not rotate front to back or corner to corner. But clearly the answer is yes, the tires can be rotated if done properly.

The following is the ONLY way you can "rotate" the tires and that's only to try to get a little bit more life out of them:
