I may be a bit confused, but I was under the impression that you can't just rotate a radial tire. Because of the rotation direction, you would have to unmount and remount the tire to move to wear pattern to the "now outside". Please tell me if I'm not correct in that the geometry of moving one wheel to the opposite side of a car doesn't change the "direction" of travel for the tread.
