Spring choices? Z06 or base
I have a 08 Base M6 car. Makes 580'ish. It has stock suspension. I recently acquired Z06 sways and springs. What would be a better choice for launching? Stock trans and diff, so not that I will be launching hard. Coil overs are not a option right now. Maybe some QA1 adjustable shocks down the road. I also have acquired 28" Hoosier bias plys. I would like to swap them out for some DR. Would a 26" radial be better? Since I will like to put some street miles on them as well. The car won't be a dedicated drag car. Also, putting a cam in and upping the HP down the road.

Because it is a manual trans car, I’d recommend keeping the springs you have and using the bias ply tire. That said, 28” is too tall for your power level.
Solution... shorter tire, or more power... I know which I’d go for...
