Let's back up a sec . . .

Exactly what tire make/model are they? The reason I'm asking is because if the tires are also asymmetric you may not be able to just swap them side to side. Such tires should indicate which side is the outside. Chances are that this isn't the case here, but it won't hurt to check.
