235/45/R17 on stock Cooper S 17x7 wheels

Has anyone tried it? The tire seems to fit on the wheel. Will it contact the suspension or fenders if everything is stock?

I run 215s and they're very close. I doubt a 235 will fit without compromising your suspension and/or bodywork.

i'm running 245/45/17's on my stock wheels and am having some rubbing issues :/...I don't imagine 235's would be fare much better.
