Id go with the shorter tire...however not knowing your setup doesnt help me too much
I ran a 275/60/15 et street radial on my car and it helped my launch at the track, but also killed my launch.. I couldnt break 1.9 60' because the car would hook and fall on its face.. and thats with 4.10s and a 4500rpm side step. I could have went harder on the launch, but i also wanted to drive the car home with the axles in one piece.

275/60/15 will kill your gear.. 28" tires make any gear feel like a whole 2 steps down. Will hook great....but too much.
