235/40R18 is good. I ran this size on the same wheels on my Blob.

if its for road take 225 instead 235
UK roads are wet 60% in the year i would choose eagle f1 assym 2
the best grip on wet,aquaplanning ,and very good grip when dry
and price is good , below 100 on camskill at the moment
second choice- ad08 but crap when wet and 560 for set insted 400.
vredestain ultrac sessanta are not bad to very close to f1s and price is very good -85 quid
