Default D.T.D and Tire Rack please help

I ordered from you both last night. I wanted to run the Nitto RII in a 305x35x18 and ordered it but it on back order for 10-12 weeks So I'm thinking about the nt-01 instead but it has a lower speed rating and might not be any good at all in the rain. I road race and really like the feel the RII gives me. I look at both sites and the only thing it looks like thats comparable is on the Tire Rack site but they only come in 295's. I want a 305-315 (I have and 18x11 wheel) that will stick when I launch and handle as good as the RII's in the corners under power. I have GY DS3's coming from Tire rack for the fronts 275x35x18.
Currently I have 275x40x17 all the way around RII"s in the back and GY fs1's in front. Like the combo but need more traction. My new wheels are 18x9.5 and 18x11. I'd appreciate suggestions from both sites please. I'm putting 440 hp and 420 tq down, need traction and cornering.

Why aren't you running the same tire on all 4 corners?

Give me a call, I think I might have found 2 of the Nittos.

Just called, left a message. I'll wait to hear from you. Well the 18x35's would have been the same xcept for the width. 274 and 305
