Unhappy Longest Lasting Tire

I need a new set of rear tires. I would give up dry weather traction for better wet weather traction, and last at least 25,000 mi. Currently i have Nitto 555NT's 255/35 on 18x9 Work S2R's. wet weather and threadwear are both pretty bad. But the dry weather traction is unbelievable, but hardly ever utilized. This is my second set of tires and i can only seem to get 12,500 mi on these nitto's and the stock tires.

I found these Falcons, i think they are cheap.

Falcon ZE512

Is $159 ea plus shipping a good price?

Any suggestion, for a long lasting tire?

Those Falkens do a pretty good job for the price. My friend has them on his Audi and he says they grip reasonably well and do well in wet weather also. The wear rating is pretty damn good for a summer tire as well.
