Default OEM 20" wheels

I have a '13 Durango SXT, one of the things on my wish list is 20" wheels. Nothing fancy, I don't have huge budget so I'm OK with the stock wheels, just something which looks like it might fill the wheel well a little more. I know at time to time I've seen them posted for sale on here and someone referenced a website which people often post them, does anyone know the website? It was similar to craigslist but seemed like just car stuff. (I checked craigslist, nothing's in my area).

Also, since the car has the air pressure sensor telling me when my tires get low I'm guessing there's some electronics involved, is that difficult to switch over?

This. You're still looking at a pretty big expense though my friend. Not only are you looking at the cost of the rims themselves, but the tires also (unless you have some spare rubber laying around). You're looking at about $600 for the tires alone (the stock Goodyear Fortera HL are actually the cheapest tire for this size believe it or not).

I have a new 2013 too and I'm looking at getting different 20's. I've read about some tires getting damaged after very little use on herre. What are more reliable brands that hold up on the D? I'm considering some Perellis.

Pirelli will obviously be the top of the line and most expensive. The Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza Plus has a 5 year/80,000 mile treadlife warranty and are geared towards luxury CUVs (read: quiet, handles well, long treadlife).

I'll look at those. A warranty sounds nice. I saw some Dunlops that were way more expensive than all the pirellis that fit the stock 20in rims. Couldnt figure out why. Has anyone run real charger 22in SRTs on a Durango? I was wondering how that 305 would work out. Do you think it would rub bad? I notice everyone running smaller replicas.
I'm also thinking of front lift, better off-road tires and 18in rims. I havent seen anyone with a lift on a 3rd gen except for the site selling them and Im not fond of the low clearance. I like how aerodynamic the build is but I'd like to be able to handle a ditch or two. I think the Durango looks even better with the lift. I want to see what it can do with a lift, better tires, v8 with the upgraded awd with gear switch. Nothing stupid looking but something more off-road capable. There are a few vids on youtube of guys in the Middle East racing up sand dunes with stock D's. That looked fun.

You can buy my 2014 R/T wheels - polished chrome with the black pockets. 9000 miles on the rims and tires. Not sure what your budget is, but, pm me if interested. Im in Florida.
