Best OR tires without a lift? 4runner newby

I’ve had good experiences with both KO2s and General Grabber ATx

 

Will most shops take your old tires? By the time I replace my stock tires, it will have ~3k miles on them. How much can I trade them for?

 

As far as most shops, I can't say. I do know Discount Tire, at least the one I go to locally, usually will give something for tires in decent shape. You're better off selling your tires on Craigslist, though, more times than not you'll get more for them. I've done that a few times in the past.

 

The Discount I use, told me that they stopped taking any tires on trade, as they don't really have a demand for them. I ended up selling mine on FB Marketplace for $200 and I was happy with that.

 

I did exactly that for the same price and was happy about it too.

 

Did you get the E rated or SL rated?

 

I have a question on
Wildpeak A/T3W. They have E rated and SL rated. price are big different . Which one you guys have or recommend?

 

If you’re driving on rough gravelly roads, or want to have a strong sidewall for airing down, get an e range. E range tires are probably overkill on a light vehicle. Some guys say they’re rough, but my K02s are great, smooth and comfortable as an e rated tire. If your driving is mostly urban with the occasional soft forest trail, a c range or even a p rated tire is fine. I ran c rated Duratracs on my previous Tacoma, but went with an e range on the 4 Runner because it’s recommended for some of the far northern roads in Canada where the gravel surfaces can slice up tires.

 

I asked the dealer to swap stock size KO2 on before we picked up our 20 as part of the deal. Might work for others.

 

can be done not easy.. Since 4runner selling quick some state not even budge on price. Swap tires and rims is another unless you pay. I asked and they gave me all kind of excuses. So i just swap out my wheels now next is tires.

 

I put my stock set on Craigslist for $300 and they sold easily. The stock Dunlops are listed at $200 each on Tirerack.com, so getting $300 for a nearly new set is easy. My new tires were $160 each, so after selling the stock tires, it cost me roughly $350 for a new set of awesome tires.

 

Yes, I did the same thing on my 2018. I presold the original tires on Kijiji right after I made the deal, and then had the dealer install K02s prior to delivery. The guy who bought them picked them up at the dealer and paid me with an e transfer. I never actually met him. It was easy selling the tires because they were still seen as “new”. I had them sold in a few hours.
