2)falken fk452
3) yokohama parada specs 2
4)falken rt615 azenis
I want good grip but also good tread wear which ones are better for my needs????or any other option??

the 615 is the best grip in the dry
the MX is 2nd
the yoko 3rd
the fk452 4th

in wet, the order is prolly reversed with the MX at the bottom

for wear from best to worst, id say
fk452 is best
the other 3 are a toss up

Ive run a few sets of the 615's and as long as your alignment isnt too agressive (lots of toe), they wear just fine

out of your list there id go with the 615 unless you need to save money and in that case I think the MX may be the better bet since its no longer kumho's flagship street tire they should be cheaper

howm many miles i can make on falkens driving agressive...i have 9k on stockera and they look like slicks

Depends on what kind of aggressive driving. If you track/dray/autox, then the tires won't last long. Very good grip though, albeit not as good as the other ultra high performance tires.

Also, 615s howl like crazy once you get near the wear bars.
