Through the local dealer, online guy, and aftermarket shop, I have been told some variant of the following regarding winter tires:
1) It is easier to find winter tires in 20" and 22" than 21"
2) 20" will handle better in snow/ice, 22" will look better (obv a personal pref)
3) Pirelli Ice and Snow is the only option in 22" (contradicting Point 1)
4) If you get Savini/Vossen/something else AM, special spacers have to be used, but give you more tire options

I know there are a lot of winter tire threads, but fwiw, I've found all to be helpful. Curious who ends up with Blizzaks, Contis and anything else.
Yes you’re right — there is a 22” option in the pirelli scorpions. They were a lot more expensive than the 21” Blizzaks based on what I saw.
