I was going to go with the RE-11 since it is my fav tire next to the RE-01R (wish I could get them but no longer in production) but according to the Tirerack test data the AD-08 turned a faster lap time then the RE-11 and the Star Spec. I am going to try them next weeked for a couple sessions at the track before I put on my R888s to see how they perform

To the OP... I don't think you can go wrong with either the Star Spec, RE-11 or AD-08. The tirerack said there was only tenths of a second between these tires in terms of lap times. If it was me I would go with 245/40/18 and 265/35/18.... it is one of my favorite tire sizes I have run. My current 18' set up is 255/35/18 and 275/35/18. The 245/40/18 will rub a tiny tiny bit if your car is lowered but the 255/35/18 doesn't rub at all no matter how low I put the front of my car and I am running a 15mm spacer with the OEM front wheels. This is with -2.4 camber in the front
