tire wear question

Hello all,

I have some decent training/winter tires on my rugged Velocity Areohead wheelset. Some kevlar tires by Gommitalia. They seem pretty bullet proof and have a nice ride. OK, they're not Michelin Pro Race on my Eurus wheelset, but nice for the Winter and VERY easy to change if a flat occurs in the cold.

My rear tire was just starting to wear, maybe 1,000 miles or so, and is a little flat across. I thought that if I put this on the front, and the front on the back (which doesn't show any wear at all) I could get many more miles out of them.

I'm now second guessing myself. Have I jeopardized handling in any way? Truthfully its not about the money, but just want to be smart, but maybe I waited a little too long to switch them.
