a lot of it depends on how hard you play.

i play very aggressively, i guess, because i'm using 11's and only tune down 1/2 step - but my strings feel very "loose" and my strings can go out of tune within a few songs, especially when on stage. maybe it's just me?

you can play that low with 10's, i'm pretty sure, but you have to be very careful how you play - play softly, don't dig in too hard, that kind of thing.

me, i'd go up to 12's or 13's.

i'd probably have to. =)

make sure you get your guitar reintonated pretty quickly, cuz changing your string gauges that much will almost certainly require a change in the action and/or truss rod. if you can't do it yourself, take it to a guitar tech.
