OP, I'd suggest OEM size RE71s. This is also my plan next year when the factory MPSS are done.
I’m running 265/35/18 71R’s square this season and I don’t think the car is tail happy. Sure, it rotates easier and I have to be careful with throttle on exit, but the turn in and mid corner grip is so worth it. I suspect staggered is a little quicker but for pure enjoyment and dancing with the car I’ve really enjoyed going square this year.

Also to the OP - why do you think the 71R is a horrible street tire? I love it on the street, gonna use em on my OEM’s next summer.
