If you have 22" rear tires going down 1 tooth in the front will bring you back to stock gearing.
Going up to 22" tires is like going up 1 tooth in the front. It has the same effect on the gearing.

I'd go down two teeth on the front,,,,,bunch of people go down one tooth on the front with stock tires, it gives it a bit more pep off the line.

I've got stock-sized tires and have stock gearing at the moment,,,,but I like to play with the gearing so I've got a 14 and a 16 tooth front sprocket ready to go on if I feel like something different.

I've always dropped 1 tooth for XC racing/trail riding and it worked out well for me.
