Most people will say not to use different tire compounds on the front and rear axles. A professional driver drove a buddy's car that had different tires and he said the car was a bit unpredictable/odd at times because of the different tires. Obviously it's possible to drive like this and in normal driving it may not make a difference, but I wouldn't do it.
I'd go with Option 1. Direzzas or Hankook RS3s would be faster (and wear out more quickly), but you can buy four of those during the next tire change.
Re Option 2, balance is nice to have, but in theory you'll always be faster with more total grip.
