Question How do I choose the right tire size?!

Alright, I get to pick 2 rear tires for my baby. Now How do I choose what size to get? right now the size tires that are on are p205/70R15... They're Aquafarts II... basically I just want a bigger tire that'll hook more...I was lookin at the Kumho Ecstas...But neways if anyone has any other suggestions for tires or knows what tire size would suit me best...that'd be cool. I gotta choose by tomorrow! thanx ...and by the way it's for street racing, doesn't see snow.

p.s. I've asked this question like twice before...lol I just wanted to get as many opinions as possible. thanx

There are no good Kumhos that are for a 15in rim
I had a set of 265/50/15 Copper Corbra Gt they will work with the stock rims I realy like them!!! in the rear only. get like a 225/60/15 any thing.
