Tyre size and choice help

Ive just ordered Advan wheels 18 x 9.5 +40 as i'm sick of my aggressive offset wheels and want to start using the car on track.

What would the best tyre choice be for track. I was thinking of getting advan ad08r 255 35 18.

Car is supercharged.

The new Bridgestone RE71-R's I've been hearing alot of good things about. Very soft though so not recommended for street/daily use.

Toyo R888 are still one of the best out there and pretty widely used. Don't use on the street though.

The Yoko AD08-R is pretty much a benchmark for great all around tire for street and track use, alot of my friends use them and have nothing but good things to say.

I was about to order the AD08R but ive gone for the cheaper Advan V105s sport because in the UK the AD08R is not allowed in street class for Toyota Sprint series. I've been thinking about giving that a go. Hopefully the tyres will be okay and with more chance of rain as its the UK probably a safer choice than using ad08r's in bad conditions.
