You will lose an inch or so of ground clearance with the brace in the rear.

For a manual trans car you want a bias ply slick. They absorb the driveline shock much better than a drag radial therefore reducing the stress on parts. They also recover from spinning better where as a drag radial doesn't recover well if it starts to spin.

Hoosier Quick Time Pro would be a good choice of tire for your application.
