22" Tire Sizes Need Opinions and Facts

First let me start by saying that I have read other threads about this topic; i still have questions/issues as this is $1000 or more worth of rubber and I don't wanna f.. this up.

Nevertheless, I am going with 22x9.5 all the way around on a 4.4i w/ current sport pkg, and I'm looking for the best tire fitment to go with. Discount Tires is suggesting 285/35/22 for the best fit. I read somewhere that this size is "off on spec" and will cause a 4% differential in my speedo; not too happy about that. Other companies are talking 305/40/22 all the way around as well, but I have read that these will rub in the front. I've also read/heard about going with 295/30/22, but I haven't been able to find these in a good brand/price.

Any suggestions or experiences with these sizes??? I need all the help I can as I want to get these on ASAP (before I spend the money elsewhere.. )
