If the Earth is the size of a pea, the galaxy extends out to the asteroid belt. A truck tire at that scale would encircle the Sun inside the orbit of Mercury.

No, the galaxy is the size of a semi-truck if the SUN is the size of a pea.

No.
The Milkyway Galaxy would be immensely huger by comparison.
