The color code for a resistor is based on the significant figures and the multiplier. For $170$ Ω, the first two significant figures are $1$ and $7$, which correspond to brown and violet, respectively. The multiplier for $10^1$ (to make $170$) is red. Therefore, the correct color code is brown, violet, red.
