Default 2015 Cherokee limited - new wheels and tires?

I am looking to get new wheels and tires for 2015 Cherokee. I really like the black rims on the Trailhawk but they are 17" (the one I looked at had tires that were 245/65 R17)

My tires are 225/60 R18 - Continental ProContact

Anyone have any suggestions? Do these black Jeep rims come in 18" size - I looked and could not find them.

Also, any suggestions on new tires - I want all season but something very good in snow and rain. Live in northeast and moving to Colorado.

Thanks

I put the all season on OEM rims and very good snow tires on steel rims. Am not sure one tire will be great at both.

They don't make the Trailhawk rim in 18" I don't believe.

225/65R-17 on a 17" wheel will give you a 28.5" OAH tire same as you have now with the 225/60R-18.

I am currently looking for a full size spare wheel and tire for the 2015 Jeep Cherokee Limited as well.
My Cherokee came with 18x7 wheels and 225x55/R18 tires. I just want a nonexpensive rim and tire.
so we are both in the same boat.

You can get replica 18" Trailhawk wheels and run your existing tire you have. Also certain "Altitude" models got black 18" wheels. If you want to upgrade your tires 255/55/18 is a good size that will fit.
