I see you are in ME...be aware that a wider tire (yes, even 10mm, such as a 235 vs. 245) will give you less traction in the snow....I went with the stock size because of this.
If you have a winter set of tires then no need to worry.

to clarify....255 is the width....
35 is the aspect ratio between width and height
17 is the rim size

Relax....
When searching for tires, its best to use the correct terms so that when you ask around people know what you are looking for.

Ha! Not to be h8in', but the so-called "Wide-track" GP was actually narrowest track on that platform
