Depends on the cars suspension and track conditions.
275/40s with my Dads car, stock 94 cobra pace car, stock suspension with the front sway bar removed and 3.73 gears. Noted it’s a heavier car then mine.
The tires like 26psi. At that Psi with launching at 2500rpms the car pulls low 1.9s. Best if I recall right was a 1.92. On my car, they like 18psi. At that psi car pulls high 1.8s launching at 2700to3000. They pretty much work just like my 275/50s.
