It depends what kinda offset the rims are. If you are using
+42 & up on the rim offset, you should be OK. Maybe even +40 but I would not take a chance. If you are using +42 just like me, you might have to trim your fender little bit. Its very easy.\
As far as speed obdameter(I hope I spell it right), it should be ok.
235-45-17 are almost exact in diameter as stock tires(on TL-S).

Bigman, you'll be fine with 235/45/17's...I have them on my new rims which are 17x7 45mm offset. You will get some rubbing when hitting bumps though so you may want to "roll" the fenders. The speedo will be about 0.5 mph faster with the new tires.
