D/R help

[SKIDONKEY]

Looking to buy some sticky tires for the Spring. I have searched in and out on every forum and am pretty sure I have it figured out. I have an 06 with basic bolt ons and am planning on staying that way for a while until I have gone as fast as I can with the basic set up. The car now has anthracite bullits on it and my plan was to buy two more (17x9) from AM and MT et street radial 275/40/17 and use those for drag tires. Tires will be used for street and track. Have new tires on the car which will be on most of the time but want to be able to drive to the track without switching tires. Basically looking for the best/cost effective set up you guys can suggest. Tried researching everything I can, just am fairly new to tire stuff.

M or A trans?

rear gear?

trap speeds?

BTW - this subject has been discussed many times on this board.

Manual trans, 3.55 gears, trap between 104-106ish. Sorry I tried searching for a while and wasn't finding everything I needed.

26" tire

bias will work better with a stick

Do not get 555R. Hate them and they do not stick.

'05 with basic bolt-ons here; I'm running M/T ET street bias ply tires (p/n 3743) on spare 17" OEM wheels - I'm happy with the results so far...

I'm running the m and h 275/50/17. I love them they hook awesome at the track. Every now and then I drive my car to work, it's a 100 miles round trip and they work great. I'm running them on the stock wheel too. If you are driving in the rain just take it easy.

Do want the m&h 275/50 and a lightweight 17. /drool
