It feels great and did not had any issue of traction going at 140mph. Check out my post about it.
It seems like there is no factory option for all-seasons for the 21s. I don't mind non-RFT so hopefully that will expand my options.
It's unfortunate that there is no factory option for 21" A/S, despite offering 21" A/S on X7, or I would have upgraded.

Ended up settling for the 20" as I don't have enough garage space to store tires or winter wheel sets.
