Question Tire Setup ???

I have a 1990 Ford Mustang with 275/40/17 Mickey Thompson Drag Street Radials on the rear. What is a good tire setup(Brand Tire/Size) for the front?

For a strip car that would be a good way to go. But that would look wierd having a 17 in the rear and a 15 in the front. What are your intentions with the car wicked??????
