...that will last,for at least 20,000 ''street driven''miles,and give comparable handling,and performance, to,or as close to, the Advan AD 007.???

20,000 miles out of a very high performance (summer) tire? Not very likely to happen. Something along the lines of the Advan A07 may be the new Bridgestone RE-01R but again, I doubt you'd see 20,000 miles from either of those tires.

you are going to have to pick on or the other...do you want more grip or do you want more tire life?

That is like asking for the impossible from a tire.

RE050A PP's? Not sure if they'll last that 20k though.
