Dont get taller slicks. They will hurt more than help. Just practice with the launches. a 2.1 60 ft can be done on street tires. Once you get your launch down, you should be in the sub 1.8 60 ft territory.

My buddy with the 10 sec hatch runs a 24" tall slick. And thats because he wants to stay out of 5th gear.

The taller slicks will rob you of your top end MPH. And it will also act like taller gears. The only reason i would swap to taller slicks is so i can go faster without hitting top gear.
