There actually are 235/50 R17 Blizzacks available, what made you buy the narrower tyre ?
Having said that, I don't think it will make a huge amount of difference fitting a tyre that is 1 cm narrower than stock, after all these tyres are for winter driving at (usually) slower speeds. In fact I would think it makes no difference at all really !
Only thing I can think of is the tyre diameter may be different so your speedo may misread slightly. so check this out.

I went on the site and the calculator figured it was within spec to do so.
Thanks again for your help.
