Default Michelin Tire Size

Hey guy's, i was looking on Tirerack at the Michelin Hydroedge 225/55TR17. Will these work on my 02 GS430 with the stock chrome 17's? Any speedometer issues? Any fitment problems?

Thanks!

That will throw the speedo off by quite a bit. Check out this site:

The difference is 5.6%. So if the speedo says you're going 60 mph, you're really going 63.5 mph.
