Default Flap speed Question for any 737 NG operators

737 NG Gents and Ladies,
Do you guys use the Boeing placard flap speed (250 kias) for Flaps 1, or do you you use a "company restricted" slower speed like (230 kias)?

At UA and previously at CO we used 230 kias for flaps 1 and 2 and 225 for flaps 5. I'm sure we get some sort of MX inspection break for doing it this way.

Just a mild curiosity.
