Toyo R888 held high HP for me very well in my 350z, but not so much on the launches.

one thing you can do is have your alignment done to remove most of your neg camber in the rear, that helps with launch traction about as much as the tire you buy. especially if you have wide *** tires, all that extra width isnt even on the ground unless you get your camber flat.

also, a really good clutch helps too... because if you setup the car to hook up amazing, it doesnt have enough HP to pull thru the launch without bogging unless you do a hard slip on the clutch.... stock clutch will not last long like that.
