Default Fan temps for 160Tstat?

What temps do you set your fans to turn on with a 160Tstat? Stock is about 226F and 235F. I was thinking of just bumping both down by about 20 degres to about 205F and 215F. Is that about right? too high or low?

Mine are set at 190 and 205, they will come on low speed in traffic but it has never gotten warm enough to turn on high speed.
