Tyre size confusion?

I wonder if someone can help, I've just purchased a set of Kahn 22x10 alloys for my 2011 Audi Q7 with air suspension. Now I'm confused on what size tyre to fit. Now I've been told that I can fit 285/40/22. Does anyone know if these will fit and not rub??

I think it'll fit @ 31in OD, the Touareg guys put on big tires all the time and the clearances should be quite similar on a Q7.. For a TDI they claim you can go up to 31.5in OD before you get intermittent rubbing on the intercooler vents when turning.. non boosted vehicles can go a lil bigger since they dont have vents in the wheel wells but not much bigger.
I've got 30in wheels right now, and feel it'd have no problems if I went up another inch.. well other than the fact that the space saver spare would be quite a bit smaller than any of my tires.. but a road side assistance plan with enough towing miles would help mitigate that.
