Feet flat on ground at 45° angles knees at 90° angles
Or
Feet under bench with only toes touching.the ground also at 45° angle

Just tried the 2nd version seemed a lil less stable but it felt a little comfier

If you don't compete then why are you concerned about leg drive?

Based on whole foot touching floor.

Feet close together (under the bench):
Greater arch
Easier too maintain arch
Bigger chance ass will lift from bench due to mobility

A bit wider usually helps with legdrive but also makes it bit harder to setup and maintain the arch.

Also going for a kinda valgus'ish position with the knees usually help achieve a bit more drive during those topsets.
