What do you think could be more secure useing a different subnet range?
Private IPs are not reachable outside your network either, so it just makes absolutely no difference which one you take, 192.168, 172.16-31 and 10.x.x.x are equally secure.
Of course you can use larger subnets than /24 if needed, but there is no other aspect to may be considered!
Your public IP will always be NATted to whatever your private subnet uses.
