Default Front Tire Question

Those of you running Drag Radials in the back, what are you using for skinnies up front? I was looking but didn't see any actual radial skinnies.

I currently have a pair of GTO spares for up front. Picked them up for $75 for the pair!

Got those same M & H fronts on Weld RTS wheels on my '09 CTS-V. They work great at the drag strip.
