I have a 2005 G35 sedan, the stock tire size is 215/55/17, I want to change the size I was thinking of either 225/50/17 or 235/50/17.

My question is will the 235/50/17 fit without any problems I would like to go with the wider tire but want to make sure it will fit without rubbing.

Thanks in advance

The important things are to maintain the same diameter. A 235/50 is the same diameter as a 215/55. But I dont know off the top of my head if a 235 will fit without interfering with suspension. I've seen 225/50 installed on the stock wheels with no clearance issues. But not 235. I don't think there should be issues, as it would only 3/4 of an inch wider overall.
