Be careful just swapping the fronts if you will have newer tires there! you always want better traction in the rears or you can spin out very easily!
I swapped the fronts temporarily like your plan and totally lost control on an on-ramp. I got very luck as no one was around and there was tons of road space.
Brakes are fine. 'new tires on rear' is a general rule for the ages on cars.
It's physics, if your front wheels slip a little, u get a little squeal and understeer, if your rear tires slip but your fronts hold you can spin out very easily.
