Yes, it can be done and I HAVE DONE IT. The inside wall of the tire is not as cosmeticly presentable, but then clean black, is clean black, as the cosmetics really don't show unless your very close. Because of the negative camber, once the tires are "flipped" on the wheel the now outer worn edge doesn't even contact the pavement and therefore wear on the now worn outer edge ceases. At $250+ each new rear tire, the $13 "flipping" charge is a no-brainer.
