they are not optimal but they will work.

Take a look at this post: What tire sizes besides 225/50R17 can I safely run on my OEM rims? Located here: Tire size

i run 235-45's just fine. They are made nitto 555's and they increase handling and ride . I have not seen and drop in performance on the handling side or the acceleration/speed side
