Tyre label is on the B pillar. 2.2 bar 31psi is pretty much the norm depending upon load. 22" are a non OEM size, but I would not imagine you need a higher pressure.

When running the 22" AC Schnitzers I used the OE pressure used for the 20" 168s I had as standard.

2.2 bar (31psi) if memory serves - for a 'normal load' in the car. I think that pressure is common unless the car is heavily laden.
Have a look in the B-pillar, drivers side for the 315/35 wide tyre tread - that's the 20" one for the rear and 275/40 for the font on the same wheel size.
Your tread pattern sounds a bit narrow for 22" tyres? The 20" are wider = 275/nn front and 315/nn rear with standard 'staggered' setup, but you are quoting 265/nn on 22"?
