Default Newbie to the Mopar world, need advice

Hello I have been a GM guy for many years still owning a corvette and CTS-V
I am tired of my Tahoe and the only SUV on the market that makes me smile is the Durango R/T. So I have been looking and looking and finally picked the options I want:

2013 AWD, R/T with: Navigation/Commuter Group, Trailer Tow package, Sunroof, Second Row Fold Tumble Captain Chairs with console, U-Connect 730 N SAT/NAV/GPS unit.

Im still up in the air on exterior color but have it narrowed down to Mineral gray ( because the wheels have the maching color) or the Stone White. A local dealer has both with huge discounts actually below base price @ 36K for a 46K sticker price.

I will start the mods the day I bring it home, LOL Mopar CAI, Mopar gas and brake pedals, exhaust, and a tune.

So, what do you recommend in colors, options, and mods?

The oem wheels won't fit...their 22x10 and offsets are wrong, factoryreproductions.com offers the viper rep's as well as the jeep srt8 reps that fit the rango's!

Victory, Stone white is a great color. I wish I would not have been so impulsive when Hesse first came out, bought an RT, and purchased white over brilliant black pearl
