$1,200 CAD seems to be the going rate for a private sale in my area.  I've seen some below $1,000 if they are looking for a quick sale.  Some business ask for $1,500 to $2,000.

I paid $800 for the same set, under 3k miles, dealer take-offs, second hand through a tire shop.  I would have paid $1000, probably not much more but $1200 isn't out of the question...

Just got an offer for 1300. I need to pick out a new set! 

 

Any recommendations?

I think that's an excellent offer.    If you're serious, I'd move on that one.

 

What are you looking for in tires/wheels?  Off-road,  wider street rod,  street cruise look, etc?   Just be aware that the spring rate of those stock tires is lower than any street performance tire you're likely to replace them with. That means ride quality changes.  Off-road tires are generally worse ride quality than those too.

I like what I have now I just want to go with something about little wider. I want to put some all terrain tires on. 

 

I'm thinking I might just autodip my wheels metallic black. I think it would look nice.

They’ll peel, not worth the effort. All terrains are heavier tires and will drop your miles per gallon, affect your acceleration and braking, but if you’re ok with it then go for it. IMHO, I’d take some time and research the look you’re looking to get. Good luck

I installed Toyo A/T 2 285/60/20 on my 16 Z and my truck does all of that, if I had to do all over, I would have stayed with the same size and less aggressive, don't get me wrong its a great tire, just not for me.

It looks great but does have a much harsher ride once you jump into E. My Nitto Ridge Grapplers are definitely a much better fit for my truck but you tend to think about the ride over crappy streets.

Yes, put the truck up on jackstands if you have to and sell them ASAP before the buyer does any research and realizes how much he is overpaying.

I know someone mentioned that i shouldn't autodip my wheels... I've done it in the past with my lexis is350 and i loved the look and durability(i used plastidip)

 

I think i might just go the autodip route and see how they hold up.

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Yes that's right, it's the upgrade that includes the overload spring and all that stuff.   Someday when I'm empty and going by a scale I'm going to stop in and get some weight readings.   Exactly  you should have the ability to change individual settings, in in Canada so I'm driving with kph but then I'm stuck with kpa when I want psi lol

      You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !

      This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page

      Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.
