Default Drag Racing wheels/tires?

Hello everyone, Im going to be racing the shoebox next Friday.
Im trying to figure out what would be a better setup.
15" 195/55 Integra Special edition rims with Yoko Avid tires
weigh a little bit more then the Rotas but arent as tall as the Rotas

or

16" 205/45 Rota c8's with Kuhmo 712 Supra Tires
weigh less then the Integra wheels but bigger wheel and not as much sidewall.

The Integra Wheels "feel" faster on the car then the rotas but seem to slip more then the Rota setup.

What would be a better setup for drag?

the 205's you want that extra contact patch. drop the pressure down to like 15 psi and have fun.
