21" or 22" wheels for newX5 '25 M 60i

I’m interested in the groups input on my build. Arrives in about 4 weeks
Getting built next week - I think.
Horrible NY roads w always massive pot holes - drove me to order air suspension. I don’t want to get into the adaptive suspension discussion- ride comfort on these roads is a necessary.
What I am on the fence about are the 22” vs 21” wheels. So 21 or 22?
I ordered the 21” as I felt I’d get about an inch more sidewall cushion. But they are run flats which ride firm to begin with. Or I could move to the 22” but then worry about no side wall harsh ride even with non run flats.
Comments please. Keep reminding yourself- some of the worst roads in the country.
