I want these wheels in 17's. I was wondering what tire size would closely match to the adventure series tires without rubbing issues. What would the offset be for a nearly perfect match? What does bp2 mean?

Hey ya Andy!
This is a good tire / rim calculator to let you know the difference of your stock tires vs other sizes.

andy, you can go with a 35" tire with ZERO rubbing....I have 17's and a 35" tire on my h3. Stock offset is +38...I have +12 which makes them stick out slightly from the fender...looks much better IMO and the truck handles better in turns with the wider track. The adventure tires are a 33" tire, if you want to stay close to stock.
