Default looking to get new tires

This might sound dumb since i dont know anything about tires so please help me out
i am trying to get new tires for my car 07 is350 since my potenzas are blad
i asked my cousin for advice since he knows more about cars than me (drives wrx). I am looking for tires that will last me longer than the potenza and that gives me the grip for the dig.

He recommended two tires:
Falken AZENI RT-615 (he said this tire is going to be loud but it will be the best grip)
Yokohama S-Drive (slighter less grip than the falken but quieter)

i also asked him about the new kumhos ( i think) Ecsta XS KU36, but he never used them before....
soo which tire should i go with??? if you have any more idea about the tire i should use please tell me
thanks!

If you are looking for long tire wear, ask for the Tire wear rating. the higher the number the longer is should last. Of course that depends on how aggresive you drive as aggressive driving wears out tires faster.

I have Kumho Ecsta's now and I am pretty happy with them as they came with the car.
