Default what tire for 500rwhp m6 launching on a shot

hey guys i really need to deside this now.
what tire would you go with for my car. race wieght will be around 3500 its a M6 car with adj. hal Rs up front and hals out back with full adj rear suspention and a 12 bolt with 4.11s. i will be running them on some 15x9 convo pros. i plan on launchin on the shot and i have about 500 to the wheels.

i was thinking about some 27x11.5 QTPs but i was also thinking about just going with a 26x10 stiffwall slick from MT

Let me know what you think guys

with the spray and the m6 and 4.11 gear you should Run the 28-10.5-15 stiffwall all that on a 26 maybe hard to stick

if you never ran on slicks you may want to cuz the car is going to move around alot (sidewall sway) and if you use tube its not as bad
