We need to know how wide the rim is to answer.

How much of a drop are you running? What springs? I think its going to be damn tight. The width should be ok. Coomer posted picture of the back wheel of a white celi that had 8" wide rims with a 35 offset. The owner claimed there was no rubbing but the profile was obviously lower than 45's. My GUESS is that you will have rubbing issues - especially if your car is lowered much.

I have this set up. Works for me. Also consider 235x40x17

Any rubbing TTE? Do you have a 35 offset too?

No rubbing but currently I am on stock springs. Rims 17x8 wit 35 offset. They don't come out from the arch so there should be no rubbing. When I put my springs back we will find out for sure.
