First, whatever you do, make sure you're using the Java 8 JDK, because Solr developers recommend it for Solr 4.x and 5.x[0]. As for the Tomcat version, we run with Tomcat 7, but only because there were early issues with Tomcat 8 on DSpace 5.x[1], though those might have been fixed by now (search the Jira). Lastly, Tomcat 8.0.x was superseded by Tomcat 8.5 by the Tomcat project[2], so if you're going to pick a Tomcat 8 to run on, I'd try to make it 8.5.x. Ubuntu 16.04 (a long-term support release) ships 8.0.x for some reason, even though upstream support was supposed to end in September, 2016!
