For completeness I'm adding one last detail to this wheel & tire upgrade: I bought 5 rims and 5 tires so I have a spare that's the same as the other 4 wheels and tires. Today I finally got around to dropping the original spare and put my new one in, and the 255/75r17 tire fits just fine where the stock one was.

I was scanning the Method site and came across an alternative wheel for the 255/75/17 tires: Method 316 17x8 +25mm. They would poke a bit more than the 703 +35mm, but the wheel is 0.5" narrower which might be a better fit for the tire.

I like those wheels a lot and wanted to get them for my Raptor. I just thought +35 might not be wide enough and I never saw any pics of those wheels on a Raptor to find out.
here is +35 with stock tires on raptor hope it helps

I pulled the trigger today on ordering a similar setup: Cooper 255/75/17 on-road Discovery AT tires (I don't need LT spec tires) and Method Gloss Titanium 316 17x8 +25mm wheels. All sourced from TireRack. Should be a good interim setup until the warranty expires, lol.

Share some photos and your thoughts on the tires when you get a chance; sounds like a great setup!
