Yep, used to have an aspen white 08 sti that I sold and got the frs. Still have my Legacy 3.6R. What is your user name over at mnsubaru?

For tire setup, I run square 225's, mainly because I can only run stock rim width in my autox class. If you're going wider, do you have adjustable suspension? As gopher boy said, stock 86's don't make a ton of power so you shouldn't need extra rear grip (to dial out oversteer). So I'd say run a square setup and adjust handling balance with strut settings (if your suspension is adjustable).

Fair disclaimer, I don't have a ton of experience with other tire widths yet, but I will say with square 225's in a sticky tire (Bridgestone RE71R's), the frs is much more neutral.

Ps...going back and driving on the stock tires after sticky tires is a ton of fun. Hello drift action! Lol
