[urq] 17-inch rims on UrQ

I was running 225/45-17  ET 35 on my '83.
The tire came about 1-2mm from the spring perch in the front and the rears
rubbed on good bumps.

When the car goes back together it will get 215/45-17.

The 235/40-17 is a wider but shorter, so who knows.
You will probably have trouble in the rear.

Anyone running 17-inch rims on their UrQ with 235/40-17 tires, such as
the later S4 style wheels? I'm told that it works, but I need to
confirm. Thanks.
