Need help on choosing tires.

HPTheBavarian · 12-12-2023, 09:05 PM

Hey guys, I'm thinking of downsizing the wheels on my 2010 X6 from 22" to 21". I'll be placing an order on a custom made wheel next month, so for that I need help on choosing a good tire size for the wheels.

Currently I'm running 285/35 on the front and 315/30 on the rear. I really wanna get something beefy for the 21s to get a nice meaty fitment. So should I go 285/40 (front) and 315/35 (rear) or 285/40 (front) and 315/40 (rear)?

Tires would be from Pirelli, going for the P Zero PZ4 as I have no issues with them so far for about 2 years now.

If you guys do have pictures for reference, I would totally love to see it.

Thanks for helping me out!
