Default ANOTHER Tire/wheel question. Sorry guys haha

I have a 17" C5 Z06 style wheels on a 1999 Z28. (I own 2 camaros) The wheels are 8" wide and im looking for a drag radial to put on the back of the car but all the ones I am seeing are like 275 40 r17 and that would look dumb because the front tires are like 245 50 r17. What would you guys suggest running on it so it will match up and look nice? I could change the fronts if I had to but thats just more money........ Its not a serious power car but it spins like crazy on some crappy street tires. Thanks for the help fellas.

Nitto has a 245/45/17 in a drag radial that would be closer.
