22 inch wheels

I have these really nice rims, in the front 22x11.5 and in the back 22x12. Current tires are 295/30/22 and 335/25/22. With these tires the difference between front and back is 1.4% which is not good. Has anyone tried different tire sizes with such as rims, tires with greater sidewall height? I've started noticing tugging issues so I switched back to my 20s and everything is normal now.

How wide are your rims? And do you know the offsets?

I was running the same size tire setup as you on 22's but my front wheels were 22x10.5". I had no issues with tugging or anything. I think the xdrive likes within 1%, so I would figure that 1.4% shouldn't make much of a difference but I could be wrong.

I had the same setup as you and have recently changed the front tire size to 285/30/22 since the transfer case likes it better.

I always tell everyone it has to be 1% or less. Going over is a bit risky. Stay in the green.

Can you share where you got these and the offset?
