I know the 22" tires will make a big difference but...really, that much?

Can anyone with a 2024 xdrive i40 tell me how quiet it is using a decibel meter on their phone?
I have X5 50e and started this post. I get a reading in the mid 60's with the 21 inch Pirelli Run Flats and felt that was loud. I guess I am accustomed to my wife's X7 which is whisper quiet. I would be taking the car back if in the 80's.
