Okay, I have a 2019 Laramie with 18" stock wheels and tires . I purchased from ebay a set of 20" stock wheels and tires with tire pressure sensors in them already . Do I have to take my truck to the dealer to reset the system?
Do they have to calibrate my speedometer as well?

As long as they are oem sensors then you are good. From what I am being told as long as it’s a stock size the dealership can calibrate it seems for a cost.

I’m feeling that if your truck came with 18” wheels like mine and you swap to an oem larger size, it needs to be. Now of course if you were keeping everything the same height / width wise then it wouldn’t adversely affect it.

Probably just sell them on Craigslist. They only have like 5000 miles on them , not a single scratch on any of the rims.

May want to hold onto them for winter use or in a case of emergency break glass kind of deal.

Yea, I'm not sure this is true. The overall diameter of the two OEM setups is the same. So you shouldn't need to recalibrate to accommodate just a change in rim diameter.
