Default Drag radials

OK guys my ysi car makes mid 800's at the wheels, Im going to buy some f14 wheels in 18x10 and 18x12. I know im going to go with 345-35-18 mt street radial 2's for the rear, but what would be a good size and tire for the front? The car is mainly a street car that sees a few bursts of speed every now and then.

Look into the Nitto NTO5 275/40/18's. They have a similar tread pattern. They should fit and will not give you problems with the antilock system as the tires will be within one inch Dia of each other.
