There is a bolt or something sticking out of the front wheel hubs. The front wheels have a notch that allows the wheel to fit on the hub over the bolt. The rears do not have the notches. This prevents people from fitting the rear wheels on the front. If you have aftermarket wheels this is usually not a problem since the manufacturers account for this.

It's been done a few times. Running the rears on the front, and using spacers on the rear to bring it out to match. All you have to do is remove the bolt on the front hub. You have to do it anyway with aftermarket rims too. Most do not account for the bolt.
