If you like that 'uphill' look I suppose you could swap the smaller front with the larger backs. 
Seriously, not only are the fronts smaller than the backs, the tires are uni-rotational so can not be swapped side to side.

These tires are not made to be rotated - fronts are smaller than the back and they are directional tires. Just be sure to keep the correct tire pressure in them and the alignment in specs.

You could always dismount the tires and reverse them on the wheels (or swap them wheel to wheel to keep the pressure sensors in the right place), then rebalance, then move them to the other side. But that would be a lot of trouble and expense.

The only rotation that can be done is from right to left and left to right.
Then you are paying for someone to unmount and remount the tires

This Thread Is Useless Without Pictures...
I had expected that someone would have chopped us a picture with the front wheels on the back an vice versa, by the time I reached the bottom of this thread!!!
