Winter Tires Question

I'm looking at winter tires for my Suzuki (235/45/VR18 summer tires now) and tirerack.com recommends snow tires in 215/60/R16. If I get that size tire will it throw off my speedo?

The OD is just about the same so I'd think you'd be fine as long as the 16s clear the brakes. You need to buy 4.

235/45/18 26.3"
215/60/16 26.2"

Yea well what sucks is I can't get steelies from them for the winter tires. I don't know if it's because they don't have them in 16 inches or because my brakes wouldn't fit but I would need to find a 16inch wheel too...
