Wide tire options?

Just saw a good deal online on a set of rims for my X6

Front: 22x10 +40 offset

Rear: 22x11 +35 offset

1. Will these fit my X6?
or will the rims be too inside/outside of the fenders?
Rubbing issues?

2. What tires will be the best choice?

I understand that tires need to be of same diameter so that Xdrive wont be damaged.

Really like to have wide tires though but not too low profile to avoid pothole damage.

Any of these sizes available in the market? Any reputable brand will do:

Rear tires:

335/30/R22

345/30/R22

or

355/30/R22

Any reputable brand will do

I'm just concerned about the Pirelli's 335/25/R22 cause the sidewalls are quite thin and the rims might easily get damaged when I hit a pothole

Hi...just put a set of 22" wheel n tire on my X6M with tire setting 285/30/22(F) and 335/25/22(R).My front size is different from other X6 here because most of them are 295/30/22.
I found that 285/30/22 diameter and rev/mile is almost the same with original setting compare to 295/30/22 eventhou I have to use different brand where Toyo for front and Pirelli for rear.
