Tire size for 22's?

I just ordered my 22's, now I need to know what everybody with 22's are running for tires. The truck is an 04 150 Scab 2wd, lowered (about a coil and a half in the front , the back doesn't matter). 265/35 is a size I've been tossing around. Any thoughts?

My truck is lowered 2"/5" by a Ground Force kit. I'm running 305/40/22 for now. I only have about 1 1/2" gap now.

Do you know what the overall height is of those tires?

How wide are your wheels? 305/40/22's are the way to go. The diameter is 31.6 in. Did you cut the front coils?

I run a 305-45-22 and I think it looks alot better. I have an H&R kit on mine which is not as deep a drop as with some other kits. I think the 45 series tire is the way to go if you are not totally in the weeds.
