Maverick on Bronco Sport (Big Bend) wheels + 245/65/17 Kenda Klever AT2 tires

[Mikemarq626]

Derrick R's Maverick XL riding on 2021 Bronco Sport Big Bend wheels and 245/65/17 Kenda Klever AT2 tires.

I would like to put larger tires on my xl. I was thinking 225/70-17 for the appearance of more tire but with the same contact patch. Also did this new tire size on Derrick R Mav require a lift?

225/70/17 doesn't exist.

225/75/17 does, but its a very heavy tire.
235/70/17 also does, but it is rare and not offered in a lot of tires.
