Sounds like you've done your homework and have made up your mind.

235/50R17 is just over an inch taller than stock, so keep in mind that you will always be travelling faster than your indicated speed by about 6.6%. With this tire, you will gain ground clearance of 13mm, about 1/2".

Wheel & tire combo should be okay, but you may be the first guinea pig for this setup. Perhaps do a search on here re; taller tire or such to confirm.
should be okay? uh oh.... idk about that lol.
