Default My BFG 285/65R20 for your 275/55 or 275/60 AT

Giving this a shot before I buy new tires and sell these ones outright.

I am putting my truck back to stock height so I am looking to trade my tires. I have LT285/65R20 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A-KOs with about 13,000 miles on them. I put them on about 9 months ago. They have no damage, never been plugged or patched and look to be wearing evenly. They measured at 10/32 on two and 12/32 on the other two at my last rotation in early July. I would like to think they're worth in the neighborhood of $1000 since they are about $1350 new.

I am looking for an all-terrain tire, plus cash if not of equal value. I'm not really looking for anything in particular because I'm only keeping this truck for another 6 months. However, I do not want junk and I definitely do not want OEM Scorpions. I would be very happy with something like Nitto Terra Grapplers or Toyo Open Country A/Ts.

I live in Madison, WI. This needs to be kept fairly local for obvious reasons. I am willing to travel within a reasonable distance as long as we can arrange a place to have them swapped. PM me any offers you may have.

Sidebar question: Why did you decide to revert back to stock height?

I've just gotten tired of the ride with the level and big tires. Ultimately the truck is getting traded in anyway because it's not at all what I expected it to be, but for now I just want to put it back to stock and hopefully same some on fuel.

Makes sense, especially if you plan on trading in soon, but I gotta say, your Truck looks impressive.

well thank you, I'd be lying if I said I didn't sneak out the back door a couple times a week at work just to stare at it. I love the look of it, but unfortunately that doesn't make up for the problems I've had.

Any interest in trading wheels and tires?? Ive got 18 KR wheels and 275/65r18 AT3s. It'd be a heck of a stretch since I live down by St. Louis but if you were interested I'd sure try to make something happen! I'll send you a pm.

Bump. Found a hell of a deal on some new Toyo A/Ts but I'll wait another couple days and see if I get offered anything I like more.

I just had a local guy selling a brand new set of 275/60s on Craigslist, I had him down to $725 but someone else offered him more apparently, so I didn't get them.

possibly, depending on the size/condition and what you're willing to put on top
