No worries, it was kinda comical when the delivery driver was going over the basics when he dropped it off and we got to tire pressure; "So here are your front stems, all nice and protected, and your tires are filled, and as we move back here, your rear stems are ...... uhh.... oh, ..... sorry, so if ya look through the rim right here, you can see that little fellar on the back side, and I apologize, I don't make em', I just haul em'."

If you swap the tires, the valves will be on the outside.

And the tread will be backwards.

Swapping them mean left to right, not just spinning them around.

Depends on your rims, many of the turf, R4 and R14 are one piece rims that can not be flipped. So if moved from one side of the tractor to the other while maintaining the same side to the outside will result in reversing the tread.

Just picked up a DK4720SE and mine are on the inside too. I was wiping down the inside of the wheel and as the rag hit the air valve, I heard air escape... they never tightened the valve. It was loose And all fluids were at minimum.
My biggest complaint so far is the location of the oil fill plug (hard to get to) and covered by wires. Poor design.

$3 funnel will fix the issue….
