why would you use a wider tire for a snow tire? thinner is better when it comes to snow tires, you should be riding on 14's with 185/70/14

skinny tires are for wet and winter use.
Wide tires are good for summer dry performance.
But to answer your question the 225/45/17 will fit under the stock suspension.
If you have a large speaker box or a lot of people in the back it may rub a little. I suggest rolling the rear fenders if you go with this size.
