It probably won't hurt your times at all! If you can get the car to 60' harder it will pick up. The 28inch tall tire is better able to take launch because it has more sidewall.
You can run a 275/60/15 (28inch) and it would be just fine. Myself on the other hand love the look of the 325/50/15, but thats extra work to get it to fit. My buddy has 295s and he had to do some bashing to get the 295s to fit FYI.
