285/70R17 looks pretty good to me. Mine are on a 17x9 at 5" backspace.

Its not that much. And its not exactly a wide tire either. Usually most go with a 4 1/2" backspace. So the extra 1/2" in backspace isnt as much as having a 315 or 325 tire on it.

need more info about your driving habits
Mostly highway? Mostly dirt/gravel? even mix?
How much does road noise bother you?
Do you want a firm/hard ride, or a softer ride?
A ton of variables to consider just for rubber alone
