The local dealer told me that Chrysler is recommending the Dunlop 3D Sport.

The Dunlops would serve you well, although the Pirelli are good, too. My advice if you want a set of Dunlops is order EARLY. Tire Rack ran out last year in Novemember. I'd definiltey go wit the 18's

I actually like the looks of these wheels better than the originals.

Re: Snow Tire confusion

I got 225/40/19 Blizzaks last winter...like night and day! I shopped ebay and found a brand new set of (2) tires for under $500.00. They're awesome. I am not one for winter tires but these cars are useless in the snow without winter shoes. Hope this helps.
