    Do i need to replace these front tires? The inside tread is nearly worn down. I really can't buy new tires right now so can I put the rears on the front and get an alignment? The rears are in great shape. Any advice would be appreciated.

    You need an alignment in a dire way

    Yep, i will definitely do that. You think i can keep these tires though if the wear is spread out across the good tread?

    no shop (at least no quality shop)is going to rotate those, they're worn out. The inside tread is gone, so it doesn't matter how much is left on the rest of the tire.

    Get an alignment, and if you can't afford new, find a used tire dealer in your area. They are often super cheap, my pops put 4 "used" tires on his car (all 4 had 8/32's, literally a couple thousand miles on them at most) for $200.
