It’s common. Just mention it and they’ll put the new wheels and tires on the trade in. But make sure you tell them that when they appraise it. It could effect their trade it allowance. Although, is it lifted? It would look ridiculous lifted with stock sized tires on it.

My buddy did something similar a few years back when he bought his second Gladiator. He had them take the stock tires off the new one and put them on his trade in (that was a Rubi lifted 2.5" on 37s) and take the 37s off the trade in and put them on the new truck.
So, old truck was sitting on the used lot with 2.5" lift and 285s
Dealer didn't seem to care.

I just traded my Mojave on 37's for a Wily's XR, so factory 35's. Dealer I did this with was fine with swapping the tires over. In the end I decided to keep the new 35's instead of swapping over my 2/3 finished 37's. If yours are pretty new just ask!

I did it a couple years ago when I traded in my lifted 2020 Max Tow for a ‘23 Mojave. They did it without too much pressure. There was a change in TPMS between the years so the Mojave didn't recognize the older TPMS. If the dealer your working with is cool and they feel their deal is working out for them they wont baulk too much when you ask to swap the sensors. If not go to your tire guy to have it done (If your going from an early Gladiator to a new Gladiator). IIRC they changed in 2022 but my memory on the year change is foggy.

Well I can answer that looking at it this way. The fact there’s no factory option for 37” tires, you might be informed by someone at whatever dealer you buy from, that in doing so will void your warranty? Seems simple enough, you keep the expensive wheels/tires you paid extra for. The problem is you don’t have a second set of tires to get there while leaving the extra tires you want to keep at home. Maybe someone here can help you out. If you were near my home I’d say lefts put my Sport S wheels and tires on your trade in, then return with the new Gladiator, take those new ones off and replace mine on my Gladiator, then we put the 37” on yours. Good luck!

+1 for not a big deal to them, just ask for the swap.
However, in thinking about the swap itself, will your new Gladiator be able to rock 37's stock without rub? Or are you getting a lift at time of purchase?

I was about to respond the same. I had a 2020 and bought a new 2025. When I put my old rims and 35’s on the new Gladiator, the computer couldn’t read the tires. I was told the 2025’s were on a new frequency. They had to remove the sensors from the stock tires and remount everything on my rims.
