I'd go smaller, 235s are a bit on the wide side for a 7" wheel if I recall correctly. Plus it's actually more beneficial to have skinnier tire in the snow.

Yeah that. I run 215/50/17 in the winter and 235/40/17 in the summer on different sets of wheels.

215-45-17 for my winter tires. and they are cheaper in that size than a 235 would be
