Will a P235/55-17 tire fit a 2009 FWD with no rubbing or other problems? I know the speedo will be off by about 1.5% depending on the particular tire selected. I ask because the selection of tires with a H speed rating in stock size is limited to tires in which I have no interest. Thanks.

The wheel & tire fitment chart for the Rogue is here:

The extra 10mm in section width vs. the stock SL tires should not pose any issues with rubbing. There is lots of clearance around the strut and frame.

Ahhh I am looking at that size too. If I end up replacing tires before upgrading to 19" wheels I want to buy a set of Continental DWS tires. They don't come in 225/60-17 but do come in 235/55-17, 235/50-18 and 245/45-19. Check them out, they are amazing 4 season tires and depending on your climate you may be a able to run them year round like in the Pacific Northwest.
