Do you mean the dark charcoal FX wheels or the actual black ones? Not trying to be a d1ck, just asking cause the black ones are only availalbe on the 2014s.

I'd hop on Craigslist offering to trade and I bet you'd get plenty of takers!

I got rid of the 22s my truck came with for 20s too

Ope, I'm being stupid again, I think they may have started offering the black ones in 12 or 13. Something with the Tremor was making me think otherwise . . .

Either way, I think swapping with some via Craigslist would be the best way of acquiring what you want and getting rid of the current set at the same time.

I mean this in the most factual (in my opinion anyway) and sincere way:

Your tires are exactly $400 a piece new, and because they're used and at 75% tread life, they're worth less than half that. So that puts their real value around $700 (and only this much because they're already mounted on wheels), plus about $800 for the wheels. So I think $1300 to 1500 on the higher end would be an appropriate amount to expect from the set. But always start high like you are and then lower with time if'n they don't sell!

You can always ask for cash on the buyer's end too of course, if you find someone who wants to trade.

Try the local tire stores. They may have takeoffs.
