You'll regret it mate, trust me.
I have a 2" lift and I went for 245/70 - they're just too small. They dont fill the arches properly and there's not enough clearance under the diffs. If you feel you must go 235, go 235/85 or like me, you'll be looking to change after 12 months.

If you're dead set on a small size, I've got 5 245/70/16 BFG AT's here with 10,000 miles on em going cheap. You can even take them on the alloy (4 of and 1 steel) if you want :)

Stu.
