Only special tool is to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) modueles. Most tire places don't have the correct device. My dealer did it for free after I bought them elsewhere.
You cannot rotate front to rear, but as long as the tires are not unidirectional, you can rotate side to side by axle.
I doubt your dealler will get the Hankooks. If so, they will almost assuredly be very expensive. If they can get them and price match, fine.
America's Tire/Discount Tire or their online version do a good job as well as TireRack online.

Cord showing on back tires and front are cupped due to not rotating them! We can't do that front to back now can we?
I read the thread about tires. I am going to Hankook brand but need advice.
My dealer has told me that work on a Croosfire requires special tools, especially the wheels. Is that correct?
Are the front and back stock 18' on front and 19" on back?
Can my dealer get that Hankook brand?
I have an extended warranty (obviously not on the tires) and do rely on ths Chrysler dealer for service/warranty repairs. This is my second crxfire, first was totalled for me, and I drive 25,000 yr business and pleasure.
Thanks for the great info,
