Default Staggered Rain Tire Sizes Toyo RA1 ?

What sizes of the required Toyo RA1 rain tires do you run on staggered wheels for SPB? Trying to get my wheel collection setup properly for my first race in Sept at HPR.

Nevermind. Answered my own question since there are only 3 sizes of RA1's made in 17". Would have to be 235/40/17 front and 255/40/17 rears. Lol.

Correct, from the Rules book;

J. Tires: Toyo RR front 235/40‐17 or 255/40‐17; rear 255/40‐17. Toyo RA‐1s may be used as rain tires

Thanks. I was confused by that b/c it looked like sizes were given for RR's, but none given for RA-1's. Turns out they are the same sizes in staggered.

New to SPB and wondering if anyone runs a square setup with the Toyo RA1 rains? And additionally any thoughts or opinions on square vs staggered rains?
