Consider these, Dunlop Sport Maxx Race. Getting very good reviews for a half way house track/road tyre. Standard fit to the next gen GT3.

Id replace it then sell it on ebay after it was repaired and advertise the fact it has been repaired.
I wouldn't run it on track due to the extra loads and temperatures, the repair also induces a weak point. Some people would run it and that allows you to get some money back by selling it on.
You need to change the front shocks with both front wheels off the floor otherwise you are fighting the ARB. What is the bolt spacing in the shocks you bought.
You'd also wig out if you had just had your eyes burnt out. This is why I will be racing with a visor this year, pull it down if you see fire. Saved Hunter Abbott's eyes at Oulton.
