For a winter tire you want the tallest and skinniest wheel/tire combo. the reason Feyd has 225's is bc of the 8" wide wheels. This is not ideal for a winter setup. 205's would not work/fit on a 8" wide wheel.

I have the factory winter wheels on my car. V-Speiche 141 alufelgen, 7jx17
205/50R17H GoodYear RSC (run flats). This is the ideal size for winter setup. So to the OP the wheel/tire package you found WOULD work just fine.

PS: Don't forget the TPMS!
