Default Need advice. Drag tire for a M6 9 inch car!!!

All right Iam finally pulling the trigger on a ford 9 inch. Right now the car has prostars front and rear. 15x10 in the back with a 275/50/15 Nitto DR on it and its lowered in the rear about 1 inch.

A couple people told me that being a M6 car I should really switch to more of a wrinkle wall type drag tire like the E/T street or the QTP. My issue is that I only have these wheels and I do like to take the car out on the street to local shows and drive it too the track. Its by no means a DD. So here are my questions

1. Iam leaning towards the 27x11.5x15 Hoosier QTP. Will it fit without any issues?

2. How well will it do on the street?
3. Do I need this type of tire or can just stay with a DR instead?
