Is there a ContiExtremeContact size that would work with my 17" single spokes...

or do I have to get 18 inchers? I'm also wondering--is this tire similar to the Nokian WR but without so much bias toward snow traction? (Kind of in between the WR and most other all-seasons is what I'm hoping). I've got the WR on my Odyssey, and it's a little too loud and squishy for my taste--but awesome in bad weather.

Default So if the ExtremeContact is not available in the stock 225/55/17...

then there is no other size of that tire that will fit the same wheel? I also tried clicking on optional tire sizes for 17" wheels, but only 225/55/17 shows up. Thanks.

Default Aargh...also an unavailable size

Looks like these tires aren't going to happen unless I buy 18 inch wheels. Thanks anyways for your suggestions.
