Mounting your tabs as far outboard as possible might create some unexpected issues. Outboard maximizes their effectiveness, but makes them subject to coming out of the water. Probably not a problem when the boat is running, but at rest, it might noticeably increase the roll. Mine often rolls the outboard hull panel out of the water, especially if it light loaded. You may find that the roll characteristics change in unpredictable ways when the tabs clear the water. I'd be very interested in what you find.
