there is very little difference in measurement between mud/snow tires and summer tires - shouldn't be a problem at all

A 235/85 is going to be about 1/2" wider and a bit taller than the 225/75.

And huge tire clearance on a G30, I doubt you'll notice a difference.

If you have dual rear wheels make sure the tires don't touch each other. I am sure they will fit though.
