Default What size rear wheel/tire for my setup?

Looking to get some drag wheels/tires for my SS and looking for a little guidance. I'm running a 9" with 4.30 gears and will be spraying. Other than a 15" wheel, I'm not sure of anything after that. I know in the past it was recommended I go with a taller than normal tire so I don't have to hit 5th, I'm just not sure how tall of a tire I should go with and/or how wide of a wheel. I'm not against rolling my fenders as I've been told that would be needed to run the size tire I'll probably need. Any help would be appreciated.

On a side note, I have not ran my car at the track with my new rear so don't have any traps speeds or anything to provide as guidance. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
