Tire selection for 1/4 mile

So i did a quick search and found lots on performance tires but nothing on drag tires.
So what have you guys found works the best with cars over 500hp for tires in 18 or 19" for the 1/4 mile strip. Preference would be a radial ?

EVOMS used 17" drag radials on custom wheels (RWD only)

Ask Divexx or Markski, they used 18's (DRAG RADIALS specifically
for drag racing only).

I have run 11.03 on 19" bling wheels and Michelin PS2's, this is about
the worst set-up that you could devise...LOL!!

For all-around street and dragstrip, 18" Nitto Nt555R DRs. They drive, handle and hook extremely well. They also last a surprisingly long time.

For the strip only, Mickey Thompsons.
