yes, it is too small

you need 215/55/17 or 225/50/17 to keep near stock diameter. In winter you want MORE sidewall, not less.

I'm in a similar situation. '04 SE. Found a combo on tirerack for

17x7 Sport Edition E3 Bright Satin Sil Paint
225/55QR17 Dunlop Graspic DS-2

Will these work?

Total (including shipping with tires mounted) is $835.47

I believe that 225/55/17 are stock diameter for the 6th gen, right?
