So you're planning on keeping your terra grapplers? If you're going to wait, you might be waiting awhile cuz I believe those tires last a long time. I say sell them and get new wheels and tires, but that's just my opinion. Maybe some 16 or 17 inch wheels.

You'll almost definitely take a hit. I don't know what size tires they are, but I don't see terra grapplers being in high demand (I could be wrong though). It's all a personal decision. Are you not happy with what you have?

there's lots of pics floating around here of painted stock rims (they look way better) Here's one:

I personally went away from the stock 18" rims to 16" pro-comps, because of the high price of 18" tires. But if you already have the tires you might as well run them till they are worn-out.
