Default Best tires for most street yet a little bit of strip?

I'm looking for a tire that will last almost as good as a normal tire yet have a little spice of grip for a once in a while drag race. Any tires like that or is it just something that doesn't exist. The only tire i know of like this is Nitto drag radials but i have no idea how long they last compared to regular tires, i'm guessing probably not too good. I'd like your expert opinions.

I have a set of Falken Ziex ZX512s in my room. Waiting to get my wheels back to put them on and try them out. They are an all season as winter is rolling around but I have heard they are pretty good and have a real good tread rating. I have S-03s right now and they hook like hell but wear out quick. Other tires worth looking at are the Yokohama Parada spec2s, the Kumho 712s, and Bridgestone RE730s. Therer are more, those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
