Can you put rear wheels and tires on the front?
20" stock rims with 275/40R20 PZeros
Can you put rear wheels and tires on the front?
or will it not fit because of the offset?

he said hes going to widen them. if he puts the rear on front ans widens the fronts to put on the rear, there wont be anything wrong with that. should be fine. its a great idea too.

Really?

The OP said he wanted to put the 275s up front and widen the fronts to put on the rear. The guy I quoted said it wouldn't work because 245s wouldn't fit on the rear. Just was funny that he thought someone was just going to swap the fronts and backs without any other mods.

i guess but if you read the op original thought it didnt say about widening them until a couple of down .. i guess thats why i didnt get it because i didnt see that either ( about widening ) i thought he just wanted to swap front and rear
