tire size question for 22" wheels...

Hi, I've been trying to figure out the tire height for the 22'.... I hear some people blow out their transfer cases because 295/30/22 is 1.3% off the 335/25/22.. BMW likes to keep it under 1% and whatever.. I was trying to research the 295/30/22 on 11" wide rim without luck... Seems like people put that tire on the 10.5" wheel and that gives them 2312 mm diameter vs 335 on 12" that is 2282 mm...
I know people say 285/30/22 would work better yielding a 2293 mm which is within 0.5% difference.. those tires however are hard to come by seems like...

My question is does anybody know what the wheel diameter would be if the 295/30/22 was sitting on 11" wheel? I assume that would be a little less since the tire would be a bit stretched on there just not sure what the height would be and if it would help with the issue.. I tried all online tire size calculators but none of them takes the stretch into the account.... thanks!

The stretch will not change a lot of the high tho...

So I think as long as it would stretch and waste 5mm it would equal to the same height of the oem wheels… just how to calculate that lol

275/35/22 and 315/30/22 on 10.5 and 11.5 rims seems to be most setups choice.
29.6 and 29.4 overall diameter
That’s what I have on my Rohana rims

Here it’s is
10.5x22 ET+20 front w/ 275/35/22
11.5x22 ET+28 rear w/ 315/30/22
Tires are Conti PremiumContact 6 if it makes difference
Wheels are flush with the fender flares, No spacers, I love how it looks.

You actually have 315/35 installed, not 315/30 as you've stated. That's a 3.7% difference.

Do you have any rubbing in the front at full lock?
