Default What size tires for a 3/5.5 drop?

I researched this a ton but still get mixed answers. 2010 F150 going with the Bell Tech 3/5.5 drop kit. I have 22x9.5's with +35mm offset. I can't decide on 285/35R22's or 285/40R22's. I'm looking for no tire rub. My last truck(Dodge Ram) rubbed so bad the tires wore through the plastic. But I also don't want the tires to look too small in the wheel wells. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I have 285/45/22 and they don't rub at all. 2011 fx4 dropped 4/5.5 on 22s.

I am worried about the tires rubbing while going over bumps and dips in the road-not constant tire contact.
