APEX wheels but which tires?

I decided to take advantage of the APEX sale and grab some VS-5RS 20x9.5" ET22 and VS-5RS 20x11" ET44. My stock LT1 trim has 20x8.5 all around so this new setup should make a world of difference. Weight savings of 25lb+ and a lot more meat.

My car is 99% street car only driven in nice weather and drag strip on occasion. 100% fun

I'm thinking on going with Mickey Thompson Street Comp radial 275/35R20 27.6 dia for the front and Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S drag radial 315/30R20 27.8 dia for the rear. Stock is 27.7 dia on the wimpy 245/40/20 so I think the dia is a good match.

It looks like plenty of guys run a 275/35 27.6 dia on the fronts without issue? APEX says I may need to adjust camber to clear front fender. Did you guys have to mess with camber?

Also what do you think about the 315/30 27.8 dia on the rear?

If this tire setup wouldn't work I'd probably tone it down and go with a Nitto setup with NT555 G2 265/35 27.32 dia front and NT555 RII 305/30 27.24 dia rear.

Lets say you?
