Is there any difference in height of the front of the h3 between the tire and fender with the adventure package compared to the base package? The reason I am asking is for wheel well clearance for bigger rims and tires. I see everyone else's but, not sure if they have the adv. or not. Thanks.

Yes, the tire is larger on the adventure so there is a smaller gap between the top of the tire and the bottom of the fender well.

I think he wants to know if the body height is different between the 2 packages. No there is no difference in the 2. The differences is just the tires and transfer case.

Unless they adjust the torsion bars for the off road to lower it. The tire alone will raise the vehicle approx. half inch, due to the 1 inch taller tire.
I have read at Hummer.com info that the basic clearance is 8.5in and the off road package is 9.1in, which is a little more than 1/2 inch, which would indicate some suspension adjustment for the added .2in. In this regards, this would indicate that the total height is also .7 inches higher on the off road package equiped vehicles.
