225/45/17

I have a 2012 Sonic LTZ with stock wheels. Would 225/45/17 tires fit well in the rim or is it too wide. If I'm not mistaken, the rims are 6.5 inches wide, while the tire seems to need a 7 inch minimum width. Has anyone used this tire width and with no issues. Thanks

optional tire size

I have a Sonic 2013 LTZ and I have the
PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON PLUS Grand Touring All-Season tire on my car. I have the LTZ rims so I was limited to the tire Size: 225/45R17 94V XL .With the right rim you could probably go with a 245. I really like this tire because it has really good wet/dry traction. So far it has been pretty good in the snow. I hope this helps. I had the tires installed at Belle Tire.

I just bought a set of General G-Max-AS-05 225-45-17 for dirt cheap, so I was hoping there would be no issues.

It's been 3 days since I've installed my 225-45-17 tires on my stock LTZ wheels and they fit great. No rubbing issues of any kind. Looks good to.
