If I were you I definately put the 5" up front if it's going to see much street time. The 3.5's are cool looking at the track, but you do have to be careful with them, freeway entrance and exit ramps are the worst, but the are just not designed for the side loads and abuse street driving dishes out. Street driving is the hardest application to perfect, you will never be sorry putting the 5's up front, because their is a much better selection of all weather tires to fit them. The tires available or the 3.5's do not do a very good job on anything but dry pavemnet, and then only in a straight line. After saying that, I will tell you that there are lot's of guys who run the 3.5's on the street but they all would have to agree that they drive accordingly.
