Taking the 5-sider gives you a seven in twelve chance of rerolling safely, but if you have to roll again, you won't be able to take enough sides to guarantee a win. There are three such situations, all of which allow you to take either die, giving you a five in six chance of a safe reroll by taking the die showing 5. Net result: 13 times out of 24, you'll win.
Taking either 8-sider gives you a 50-50 chance of rerolling safely, and you can guarantee a win if you have to roll again by taking the other 8-sider (possible in every such situation except if you take the die showing 5 and then roll a 6).
Therefore, your odds are slightly better if you take the 5-sider.
