That will open a can of worms..., as wider doesn't automatically mean more grip. Footprint changes shape (not size) and there is more lateral grip. There is much more to grip than tyre width.
BTW, I run two wheel sets, staggered for the summer and square for the winter. The car is best balanced on the winter 'square' set, as the handling is neutral, not the understeer we get with a staggered setup. Got to keep these sporty drivers with 'performace' wheels in-line somehow.
So 'square' for the sharpest handling car.
