Default Largest 17" Tire Possible?

Has anyone used 235/50/17 tires? I'm dizzy caused I've used the online tire calculator so many times I want to put the largest tire possible on my 99 GS300, using GS400 OEM 17x8 5 spoke wheels. (wheels are like pic below)

My stock 215/60/16 has a 26" diameter, the 235/50/17 diameter is 26.3 but I'm not sure that it won't rub on the inboard side.
