    I run Hankook 295/45/20 Ventus ST RH06 on my 03 and I'm happy with the wear and performance.

    The best pricing I found was Tire Centers Inc. mounted, balanced etc.

    TCI not a bunch of hype and noise or....Do you want stems with that?

    I do on my 03 with no rubbing. I heard 305's in front will rub.

    When I had the 20's I ran 295/45/20's all around with 2" front drop. Only rubbed if turning into a driveway somewhat hard

    I know my next set will be 295 on the rear, just worried about the front.

    If you dont mind the lo-profile, you could do 295/40/20's. I had those before the 45 series and they were fine. I just went 45 the next set for a little more sidewall.

    I have 295's on front and rear with no rubbing.

    The OP is asking for an '06 with 22's but I have no experience with that setup.
    Just saying that if he keeps everything else the same and just goes a bit wider to 295's that they will improve his ride.
    I've done that on just about every vehicle I have ever owned and it's played out true for all of them.
