All the TL's have 6.5 inch rims. I don't know the exact reason, some say because of the curb rubbing we all get. If you can, try and score some used CL rims, so you have the 7 inch wide ones. Then you won't have any problems with 235's!!! If that isn't in the price range, you should be able to do it. It's only 1/2 an inch difference. I would ask your local tire shop to make sure. Good luck!!!
