best car stance???

what would be the best stance for my 1982 firebird so i can get the best traction? High front,high rear,low front,low rear?
I have 215-65-15 on the front and 255-60-15 on the rear.

Low rear and high front. This moves the Center of Gravity towards the back of the car. A higher center of Gravity also makes a longer moment arm around the rear tires, so it hooks faster. That is how the solid front axle cars came about. They put the car real high in the air and it had the same effect of shortening the wheel base.
