You might want to look into availability of rubber before you buy.

Continental makes a fantastic 22" for the EU market but to get a set stateside will require importing from a seller willing to ship them here. (I gave up on that endeavor).
The 21" will have the better ride and better tire options. The ride on my X5M with 22's and H&R 1.2 drop is as punishing as my M3 on coilovers was.

Yea the lionhart brand is the only one i found for 335/25/22 and for 315 there are 3 lexani Peirelli, lionhart. im ok with different brands as long as i can find reviews about that brand first and they have to be good. Im trying to find more X5M with 21 inch wheels but im mostly finding 22inch wheels. I will be dropping it in the future but i hate that my wheels look so small and tucked in. i could just buy tires for my stocks but i wanted to put winter tires on them and buy summer set wheels for this and next.
im still debating on what size alot of nice 22 inch wheels but since im going to be driving this car alot till the end of this year im thinking 21 for comfort and the fact i can find more tires for 21
