Front vs rear wheel sizes for best handling
I've experimented with this for 30 years with many many track days under my belt. Besides the correct suspension parts for your application, wheel/tire combo along with low and even ride height make lots of difference when it comes to predictable handling.
That being said, same size tires are not a popular choice among the musclecar crowd so I usually keep my opinions to myself. My current setup is 18x9s with 255 40s all around using Falken RT615K tires. The tires I had before were more street friendly and fast too - Michelin Pilot Super Sports. These are 26" tall so they are close to OE heights.
