You need to have short valve stems installed or have them pluged, drill the rim on the other side and install the stem. Your can get this done at the dealer most of the time... Keep in mind you might not like the affect it has on your front suspension... A buddy of mine tryed this and he didn't like it so he fliped them back the whey they were....

You will notice a big increase in "bump steer"..... That you will not like.... I think my buddy paid around 25$ bucks to have the stems switch on 2 rims....
