Default Need Tire advice...

Well my tires have just about had it.... only about 1k left to go and their gone. I want a tire that will last, I drive at least, min. of 300 miles a week, and i drive on them pretty hard, they need to be fairly sticky as my chassis is getting stiffer with every mod and light as heck (around 1900 pounds) I dont really do or have time for autocrossing, but i do like to drag it every other week or so. I've previously had yoko parada asc. 205/45/16 and nitto 555, these have lasted about 10k-12k for me, as well as toyo proxys <which melted like butter>, so my recent choices are now narrowed down to Kumhos, dont like the sidewall effect from what i'v heard. Falken's(forgot their name), paradas again, but i'd like somethink that didnt loose grip so quickly when the tread gets low, i mean i still have fairly deep tread on mine and the are greesy as hell. nittos are alright but break away really quick in hard cornering<which I love doing. So i figure someone can help me out on here. Thanks.

also any recommendations on sizing should i go 40's or 50's or stick with 205's or 215's.
