Default What drag race tires (2008 Mustang gt)?

Have a 08 mustang gt automatic
Fairly stock, kn intake, exhaust, and tune
stock 3.31 gears (for now)
But wheel slip is being a problem (at track only)
So what Dot tires would be best for drag racing?
What size can fit without cutting up or changing anything?
Plan on changing tires when i get to track, so im just looking for rears for now.
Thinking about some m/t tires, but what size???
Thanks

MT`S ARE my choice, If u have 17 inch wheels go with 275/40/17 .
