Default Need some expert tire help

Mods are in the sig, and it is time for new tires. I have not run the car on spray yet, but i am wondering what size tire to go with this time around. Wheels are 15x8.5 Centerline Convo Pros. I am debating between a hoosier 28x9 or a 29x9. I spin the motor to 6700, and spray a 150 shot. Let me know what you guys think.

On a 150 shot if you wanna stay at 6700 or close threw the traps id go 29" if you can fit it.But im sure your going to be doing some triming.

Yeah, Id go w/ 29s if you can fit em in there. Every bit of sidewall helps. You ought to be on 2 wheels after you pass the 60' with that combo!!
