yes you can fit 235's in the front with no problem, was forced to last night after an encounter with several nails and bolts.

A fwd car with a front engine has all the vehicle weight over
the drive wheels. Your front tires provide 80% of your handling characteristics (lot's of understeer). Having larger tires at the back doesn't contribute any additional grip that would improve handling.
The deal is even worse in a quattro car as the system attempts to redirect power to the rear based upon slip rates which would now be different from the front.
