Question Tire questions

I am haveing difficulty getting tires for my Cobra. My rim sizes are 8 x 17 and 12 x 17 I am looking for 26 " diameter tires. The foot print of the tires should be close to the rim sizes. Mickey thompson has a P315/35R17 (25.8" tall) for the rear. Toyo has a Proxes R1R in 245/45ZR/17, for the front (overall height 26"). These are the only tires I can find that are close to what I want in width and overall height, in a 17 inch diam. rim. I require the drag radials because of the weight of the car, and the output of the engine. (verified over 700 HP at 5800 rpm 385 series)

Any suggestions?
