Drag tire choices?

Drag tire choices?
I have two sets of drag tires. A set of 16x8 rims, (slp 5 spokes) with 255 MT drag radials. Second is a set of 15x8 draglites with MT ET street bias plys ( the 27in size). The Radials have given me the best 60' at 1.8 and are much easier to race on and way better to get to and from the track. The draglites are way lighter and should grip better , but dont seem to. Should I stay with the 16in radials, or sell them and the bias ply et streets and get either 275/50/15's or 275/60/15's ( if they will fit) ET street radials for the draglites.
I also could go with 315/35/17 drag radials on a set of 17x11 ZR1 rims. I cant run smaller than the 17in fronts due to the C5 Z06 front brakes, So the 255/16 rears look a bit strange with the 275 fronts.
