Default tire size help

Hey guys,

I got a 2001 volvo s60 with the 17 inch wheel option. It came with 235/45/17 size tires on it. i saw a good deal and was wondering if i could fit 225/45/17 on it?

You should stay with your vehicles recommeneded tire size. Check inside your gas tank flap and it will tell you what size to use
