TireRack says 225/45-17 are a no-go for the Viggen

I had emailed TireRack to see if they had any opinions of the Continental ContiExtreme Contact vs Pirelli PZero Nero M&S in a 225/45-17 and this is the response I received:
"The Viggen is very size sensitive and a 225/45-17 is going to be too tall of an O.D. to work. I would not recommend that size at all."
Any thoughts on this? While I respect their opinion (they are supposed tire experts), after monitoring this board I have not seen on bad experience with this size tire . . . Please share
