So the good news, I should soon have my new Ram delivered. The bad news (IMO) is that it will come fitted with the Pirelli 285/45R22 tires. I am looking to upgrade these, and I have followed along on the conversations. Great to have the forum. (Torn between something fun, or the Defenders. :) )

Unfortunately, my dealer is advising that they do not take the OE tires back. (At least at this location...)

So here is my question: For those who have sold OE tires, Pirelli or others, what has been your best sales channel? And, what cost might I reasonably expect to recover? 50% from retail? Better? Or, should I just send them to the recycler's.

I've heard that Discount Tire offers decent money for them. Might want to try that option.
