Default Question after my first 600ks

hi all
i picked up the jeep Cherokee kk LIMITED last weekend, so far loving it and have already clocked 650ks , I have a issue and inquiry on which everyone's opinion would be good,

Issue no 1
(VERY POOR AUDIO QUALITY WHILE STREAMING THRU BLUETOOTH)
I have connected my iPhone 6 with the 430/RBZ radio, calling seems to work fine but streaming music results in very poor audio quality. i tried checking on the jeep website that if i need a radio firmware update but as per the website my system is unto date.

inquiry ,
Car needs new tyres and I am having a hard time finding A/T tyres to fit to my 18" wheels, only tyre option i see is 255/55/18., I went to jeep wreckers to check if he got any 16's of a sport and he is selling them for $200 each and which i think is bit overboard.
I am not sure which other model jeep wheels will fit kk or i have to go towards the 16" steel rims and if i go to 16's then what would be the size before i start rubbing tyres to the inner walls without going for a lift.

Thanks

I went with 265/60/R18s
About a inch and a half bigger than stock.

Hercules TerraTrac A/Ts
(Hercules are a subset of Coopers)
Put about 50 thou on them now, still plenty of tread.

If you're not lifted, Rubs slightly on full lock, or if full flex (fully loaded off road.) After a lift, brilliant.

Also, not all MyGig's have A2DP Bluetooth streaming, especially if the UConnect is a seperate module. You could be just streaming music as a 'voice call'. I know my REN one doesn't do bluetooth music.

Never have any issue with streaming both via BT or USB and in both cases is via a separate UConnect module linked to an RB2 Mygig.

I have one of the older REZ series MyGigs, which probably explains why mine doesn't support it.
(Installed it shortly after I bought the KK, got tired of burning CDs for the 6 disc unit)

RB2 = Mitsubishi Electric 2010-2016
REZ = Harman Becker 2008-2010
