Default Another alignment question, with a twist

I'm on here searching for a while to find a definitive answer as to whether the UK alignment specs are the best 'factory' specs, even for an AP2. This question I have not yet answered, so any input would be great on this....

The main question though is that my suspension is all stock, running AP2V1 wheels with a 225/255 combo Z1 Star Specs. Given that the tyre sizing is different, would that mean that I would need different alignment settings to 'factory'.

I drive my car everyday, but also regularly go on some pretty full on road trips in the mountains so an aggressive setup is ideal, just not too aggressive!

Sorry for the basic question, just want to make the right decision.

Nothing at stock heigh will be too aggressive. Just don't screw up the toe settings.

UK settings vs US settings vs whatever is really a silly comparison. If you want more front traction dial in more negative camber, but you will decrease treadlife. If you want more rear traction, dial in more negative camber.

Don't make this more compilcated that it really is. Pick something that works, and if you don't know what works stick with the factory settings.
