If for example, a tyre manufacturer recommends a tyre on a 7.5"-8.5", 8" optimal, I certainly wouldn't run it on a 7". I probably wouldn't run it on a 7.5". I would run it on a 9" if I had to.

Michelin is OK with a 225 on a 7x17 wheel.
You should not run a 235 on a 7x17 wheel as minimum recommended for that size is 7.5 inches.
Autocross is highly specialized and low speed, emphasizing turn in and rotation where sidewall roll is actually an asset.
For street driving or occasional track driving stick to 215 or 225 would be my advice.
