I recommend 245/35/21 and 285/30/21. With the wider wheels you have & the offset, you can even do 265/30/21 and 305/25/21 if you're planning on lowering.

Thanks for the info!
I was considering all of that, but I've just spoke with my local wheels dealer and they recommend going for a 20" set. They say that non-RFT 21" tires could damage the xDrive system.
I'm not really sure what to do at the moment .. |
If the tires are RFT or none RFT it will have zero effect on your xdrive system. The issues that you will have for the xdrive is when you use different overall tire diameter front to rear. As long as your overall tire diameter is the same or within 0.5% up or down, you will be fine.
