Default 550 and spinning

OkaY so it's a bit cold here in Texas and tires are spinning all the time. What is the best tire to run all I need is rear tires only. I have ap1 and ap2 wheels to use think the 16 would be better to run so I can run a taller tire. Thinking about Mickey Thompson #3793r has anyone ran these or a tire close to it.

I am running a comparable tire to that now. I need something more aggressive.
