With those sized tyres I think you'd certainly have to get them rolled.

IMO 17s are way too big for the 6N and 6N2, 14,s 15s or 16s are the far better options.

If your set on 17s though I'd look at very low profile tyres, something like 35. Width is hard to say without knowing the width of the wheel.

Another thing to add, the tyres will cost you alot more too. But as Tim said 14, 15's and 16's are your best bets.
