I used the HTRZ II and they sucked.

235/45/17 should fit fine. I know another 5 gen friend with eibachs and 235. they did okay.

a little too wide for the stock 17, but you will not rub.

Sitting on 235/45-17s with Eibachs, no rubbing with stock wheels and 15mm spacers in the rear.

Just installed Pilot Sport A/S 235/45/17 on stock rims on Maxspeed springs and no rubbing nor any issues.
