I don't really thing there is a "best" gauge for a Floyd. I've used 10s and 9s on my Floyds and have never had a problem. You just need to adjust the spring tension on the bottom of the bridge to switch between the two. If you want to go any heavier than 10s, you might want to add another spring or a heavier one to make sure the bridge stays parallel with the body. If you use uneven string gauges like Ernie Ball skinny top / heavy bottom strings, you will want to adjust the spring tension to compensate for the uneven unique string gauge. There is no wrong set. You just need to set it up right.
