Default Treaded, slick or foam tires?

I'm not expert in on-road racing, I have buggy I'm trying to change it race on on-road track ( originally it is asphalt car park) , I notice that there is too many type of tires I I don't know which one I should select , I already ordered Treaded tires but I don't know if it is the best since there is also wide street, narrow street , slick , foam (Y-dot),foam ( G-dot) and foam (B –dot)

Please I need advise on which one will leads to high grip in the asphalt track taken in consideration that the track very clean.

Please , another question .. in the foam tires , what Y, G and B dot mean?
