toyo r1r's in my book are the best thing since sliced bread. about £70 a corner but worth every penny.
Anything With Tits or Wheels Will cost you MONEY!!

If budget can stretch go for toyo r888 but there pretty pricey but I have heard good things about toyo R1R's and there not badly priced and have
a similar compound to the 888's am led to believe, try eBay or camskill, I have heard camskill don't stock the 888's anymore.

Where size can be important. 15" wheels allows you more choice.
If you really want to do well on track and are a dry weather driver then A048 and R888 are both good. If your mainly road and want something more
sensible for wlthe get then T1R or prada or eagle F1.
There are some other tyre companies out there I would like to see people try like Traxxis ( I think) who used to do part tyres.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Can recommend AD08s if you want a road/track tyre - they have a lot of grip in the dry, and seem nice and progressive on 15". Not too expensive
either.
