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.

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!!
