I would think the handling would be worse because of the weight and the truck isn't designed for 22" wheels. With my 911, the car was slower and handled worse when I went from 18" to 19" and the car was designed for 19", but optimized for 18".

Depends on the rims.
If you get lighter 22" rims, then the 22's will probably handle better, if you can get the balance correct.

No use in getting massively wide tires when your biggest problem is understeer.

planning on getting a set of 22s maybe
or just a 2nd set of 20s will be ok too

rims

kirk , i think the set of rims u already have on the x5 are awesome because everything else just looks so aftermarket. U're rims look like they belong.
