They are indeed 17x6.5, but 225/45 fits fine on them, even with aggressive tires. Both sets of autocross tires on the Mazda were 225/45s, and her winters are actually 235/45s on 17x8s, so don't worry about fitment.

Edit: and like I posted in the other thread, squishier tires will actually help the twitchy feel of the car, not make it worse. If you're comfortable with the snow/ice performance of these, they're an excellent option for Amanda's car.
