Default Any issues running 235/45/17 on stock 3GS wheels? Anyone done it?

So I've had my stock wheels on for winter, with 225/50/17 Michelin Pilots (stock size). I'm always wanting just a little wider tire on every vehicle so just wondering if a 235/45/17 would cause any problems with rubbing or the AWD system? I figure the overall rolling diameter would be about the same, but would the car notice any difference?

Nobody's done this? I realize stock wheels aren't super popular here LOL ....
What about 245-45-17? I just realized they are actually closer to the stock OD. Would I get rubbing with that width??
