I have a 2002 t/a w/ ~550 rwhp, t-56, and finally got an s60 w/ 3.73s (new).
I currently have firehawk rims with 275/40/17 nitto DRs. They are nice on the street but just dont cut it. My fastest 60 has been 2.1 and i have a decent suspension.

My goal was to run an 11 sec pass in street trim. (11.9 would be enough). So far my best was 12.1 which i did on my old engine w/ spray and n/a on my new engine with clutch issues which are now fixed (hydraulics).

I think the m&h will be stickier than the nittos and still be a "street trim" sort of tire. I would get 275/40/17.

What do you think? Any other considerations/recommendations?

The stickiest drag radial I have seen on a M6 car is a Hoosier........

They will be much stickier than the Nitto and should easily cut down the 60ft times. You've never cut better than a 2.1 on the Nittos? I've cut 1.8's easily with bone stock suspension, weight and rims

I say good.choice on the M&H tires. I use Mickey Thompson's, but may go with M&H in the future.

i will prolly try the m&h next myself. i have 295/45 17 which is a 28" drag radial and at the strip they are almost as worthless as street tires. havent made but 4 or 5 passes but all were horrible even trying different things. to much rpm up in smoke,to low and it would bog and 60' times were only 2.0 or so any way i tried. et drags are hard to beat on an m6 with alot of front end weight.
