I was looking into front tire options if I decided to get 305/45/18 rears. But there aren't many options in 18" that are a similar diameter.
The popular setup is 265/50/18 up front with 305/45/18 out back. I really don't want to run a tire that wide up front if I don't have to.

I like the stock 245s up front. They aren't too skinny for street use, but they're not too wide for the drag strip. A wider tire up front will slow the car down a little in a straight line.
I went with 245/45 18. I don't like the really tall tires everyone around here runs with 18s. They are only 26.7" tall. Are you looking for drag radials for the rear or street tires? What's funny is there are more drag radial portions than street tire options, that's why I have such a hard time finding tires.

What size wheels are your running?
