Someone will surely have a good reason for going the other way, but I would think that landing with a crosswind from the good tire side would be best. Land on the good tire first in a tail low wheel landing, get the tailwheel down, and hold off the bad tire as long as you can finishing with full aileron towards the crosswind. Ground loops normally wind up with you turning towards the crosswind as the rudder is blown and a flat on that wide will add to the tendancy to turn that way.
