Wow! That's a really good time for your relatively limited mods! I would think that the time you save on launch with the stickier tires would more than make up for the slightly taller overall gearing.

theres no weight reduction, full interior and spare,,,also your reaction time doesnt mean anything when looking at your times, the clock doesnt start until you leave the line, no matter how long u sit there..peace

What kind of radials do you have? 225/50-15 are the same O.D. as the stock 205/55-15. They are both 23.9". Maybe you aren't launching high enough. With my 225/50-15 BFG GForce Drag Radials I launch at 7000 RPM. 93 Prelude VTEC
