Hi I have an XC90 D5 10 months old which is just coming up on 10k miles. The front tyres are now quite worn down but still have some way to go until getting to the wear bands. The rear tyres have much more tread on them, so I am wondering if it is safe to swap the front and rear tyres so that the ones with more tread are on the front and vice versa. I would not want to swap them front to rear AND left to right as I do not think that would be sensible. This way I might get up to almost 20k miles before having to replace them all in one go assuming the same sort of wear pattern / history that has happened so far. Does anyone have experience of having done this, and are tyre dealerships or volvo dealerships (1st service due soon) happy to do this for a small fee ? Thanks
