I went through about 20 sets of tires in the 225/255 stagger and that was my favorite setup. It gives you a bit more grip forward so better cornering and braking. No need for a sway bar change.

I also experimented with a 255 square setup, and it was good but not quite as quick on my local tracks according to the data. Different drivers have different experiences with this.
