Yeah, like Import said it's a trade off. You can get tires that will last 30-40K miles but the performance wont be as good.

Any tire with a treadware rating between 140-200 should give approximately the same longevity as with the OEM tire, there's no particular reason to stick with the OEM brand. Once you start going above 200 TW the tire life will increase but dry weather performance grip will start to decline.
