I have 265-70-17's for my winter tires and they would be closer to your 20's than 265-60's. Best thing for winter tires is keep them as skinny as possible. Mastercraft MSR are what i run on two vehicles and highly recommend them for their price and performance.
One difference that i did notice though when i ran 245-70-17's on my truck which is factory 265-70-17's was the odometer seemed to go up alot faster in the winter than the summer with the same typical drive.
After i wore those tires out though i switched to 265's and no longer had odometer or speedometer problems but the traction is noticeably less. Significantly better than the crappy 2016 take offs i run in the summer which can't handle wet grass, but the 2cm/ wheel makes it slip in extreme conditions more.
