FIT:
There is the slightest bit of rub on the outside rear corner of the wheel in the wheel well when turned as far as possible on flat ground. It is barely making contact with the plastic fender liner at a place where the liner is flexible and has about half an inch of flex before contacting the underlying metal. The rub is so slight that I couldn't hear it inside the vehicle and only found it on visual inspection. I think it's safe to say that this is the outer limit of size.

@Treihing, thanks for your thoughts and I'm pretty new to the aftermarket wheel scene so your warning prompted some investigation on my part. I've showed the rub to a few off-road enthusiast friends including a fabricator that builds overland campers as his business and they all have confirmed that these wheels, while cutting it close, are safe for the vehicle. I was able to get it off-road on a camping trip last weekend that was about as crazy as I'm planning to take it (including getting 2 wheels in the air) and there were thankfully no issues. The rub is only about a 16th of an inch at full lock and it's in the vertical wall of the wheel well so it won't be made worse by suspension travel. There are no clearance issues under the fender or at the control arms. Like I said, I'm pretty new to this aspect, so if something is an issue in the future, I'll post about it.
 
@Jdeans99, from what I can surmise, I think your math is valid. A wheel with 10mm more offset would help with the rubbing I have and I think you could even get away with the wider wheel, so the narrower one you've mentioned should be fine. If there's any measurements or photos that you'd like me to document, I'm happy to do so.
 
Service manager at my dealer told me they did it when they installed my wheels. My trip computer and external gps are accurate to each other, so it seems like it worked but I didn't watch him do it so there's always the possibility of shenanigans.
