How much do they normally charge for flipping tires?

Since the OEM tires are non-directional, i'm assuming there will be no problem flipping it inside to outside. Just curious how much tire shops usually charge for flipping all 4 tires?

23mm minimum but 24 mm to be absolutely safe. Either ways you're going to need them custom made for such specs. Or you could just throw on some 25 mm which don't need to be custom made.
